Abstract

Recently performed precision measurements of the angular distribution of slow neutron scattered by Xe gas yielded new constraints for the constants of hypothetical Yukawa- type corrections to the Newtonian gravitational potential at short distances. It is shown that additional diffraction effect due to correlations in positions of atoms in gas not seen in these experiments has significant value and should be taken into account in more sensitive measurements improving experimental constraints on new interactions.
