Join Stanford University's Giorgio Gratta for a colloquium lecture exploring innovative techniques for testing gravity at short distances. Discover how scientists are moving beyond traditional mechanical spring methods used since Cavendish and Mitchell to investigate gravitational forces at microscopic scales. Learn about cutting-edge approaches in atomic, molecular, optical (AMO) physics and high-resolution nuclear spectroscopy that are revealing potential exotic phenomena predicted by various theories. The presentation examines both emerging scientific results and the exciting new questions and applications these novel experimental methods are generating in the field of gravitational physics.
