A recent reanalysis of the original Eotvos experiment suggests the existence of a repulsive intermdiate-range deviation from Newtonian gravity with coupling strength on the order of ˜7.2×10-3 and a range on the order of 200 m. If such a force exists it would induce a test mass in the interior of a laboratory-scale spherical mass shell in the earth's orbit to undergo linear harmonic oscillation about the shell center. If the non-Newtonian force couples to baryon number, two such test masses of different composition would oscillate at different frequencies. The fractional change in oscillation frequency is more than one million times the fractional change in acceleration incurred by the same test masses in an Eötvös experiment at the earth's surface.
