Recent Experimental Tests of Gravitation — •Eric Adelberger — University of Washington, Seattle

Laboratory studies of gravity have reached remarkable levels of sensitivity that probe interesting ideas at the interface of particle physics and gravitation that are beyond the reach of current accelerators. I will review recent tests of the Inverse-Square Law that study length scales below the 85 micrometer scale associated with the observed dark-energy density, and Equivalence Principle tests involving laboratory objects, astronomical bodies and galactic dark matter. Finally I will discuss sensitive tests for Lorentz-symmetry violation using electron spins.
