Torsion-balance tests of the weak equivalence principle
Open accessAbstract
We briefly summarize motivations for testing the weak equivalence principle and then review recent torsion-balance results that compare the differential accelerations of beryllium–aluminum and beryllium–titanium test-body pairs with precisions at the part in 10 13 level. We discuss some implications of these results for the gravitational properties of antimatter and dark matter and speculate about the prospects for further improvements in experimental sensitivity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
