Abstract
Experimental limits allow for new forces in nature millions of times stronger than gravity at distance scales resolvable to the unaided eye, and trillions of times stronger than gravity at scales accessible to scanning probe microscopy. Recent theoretical work has led to specific predictions of new physics in these regimes, including possible signatures of extra spacetime dimensions. This presentation will review several experiments and proposals designed to be sensitive to new physics at these scales, with emphasis on an experiment in progress at Indiana University that probes the range from about 10 to 100 microns.
