Description

With special, intrinsically compensated masses having -1023 polarized electrons, but having no measurable magnetic moment, it has been possible to investigate the existence of weak, hypothetical spin-dependent forces. Postulated spin-spin and spin-mass couplings are tested with two different versions of a torsion pendulum. Both of these two types of experiment yield null results, providing limits on the interactions at ranges greater than about one cm. (TEC). 14 refs., 2 figs
