Phys. Rev. Lett. 58, 1066–1069 (1987)Search for a substance-dependent force with a new differential accelerometerReceived 5 December 1986; published in the issue dated 16 March 1987 A well-balanced hollow copper sphere freely floating and almost totally submerged in water is observed to move toward the nearby edge of a cliff. This observation is consistent with a substance-dependent, medium-range force postulated in a recent reanalysis of the Eötvös experiment. Further measurements with different elements and geometries will be required to establish definitely the existence, source, and description of such a new force. © 1987 The American Physical Society URL:
