Abstract
We present new results for a Galilean experiment using two masses of c opper and tungsten in simultaneous free fall. The experiment searches for a possible difference in the free-fall acceleration DELTAg and it is sensitive to any composition-dependent interaction between the test masses and the earth, whose range exceeds 10 km. The results show no evidence for any composition-dependent gravity-like interaction within DELTAg < 1 muGal.
