Abstract
We review the experimental constraints on additional macroscopic Yukawa for ces for interaction ranges below 1 cm, and summarize several theoretical pr edictions of new forces in this region. An experiment using 1 kHz mechanica l oscillators as test masses should be sensitive to much of the parameter s pace covered by the predictions. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
