Result description
This work establishes the theoretical sensitivity limits of cavity optomechanical sensors for detecting short-range deviations from Newtonian gravity, such as Yukawa- and chameleon-like forces. By accounting for finite-size effects and screening between spherical source and probe masses, it refines our understanding of how well quantum sensors can test alternative gravity models. The result guides experimental efforts by identifying fundamental constraints and opportunities for improving bounds on fifth forces.
