摘要
We have performed a measurement of the Casimir-Polder force using a magnetically trapped Rb-87 Bose-Einstein condensate. By detecting perturbations of the frequency of center-of-mass oscillations of the condensate perpendicular to the surface, we are able to detect this force at a distance similar to 5 mu m, significantly farther than has been previously achieved, and at a precision approaching that needed to detect the modification due to thermal radiation. Additionally, this technique provides a limit for the presence of non-Newtonian gravity forces in the similar to 1 mu m range.
