摘要
An upper limit on the Casimir force is found using the dielectric functions of perfect crystalline materials which depend only on well-defined material constants. The force measured with the atomic force microscope is larger than this limit at small separations between bodies and the discrepancy is significant. The simplest modification of the experiment is proposed allowing one to make its results more reliable and answer the question if the discrepancy has any relation with the existence of a new force.
