Precision studies of Casimir force and short-range gravity employing prototypes of interferometric gravitational wave detectors
Abstract
We discuss experimental schemes to measure the Casimir force and short range forces from hypothetical modified gravity with unprecedented sensitivity using highly sensitive prototype gravitational wave detectors as displacement sensors. The finite temperature effects of the Casimir force would be detectable with a sensitivity of better than 1% for separation exceeding 30 microns. Constraints on short range modifications to gravity can be improved in the distance range of 10-100 microns.
