摘要：

We obtain constraints on non-Newtonian gravity following from the improved precision measurement of the Casimir force by means of an atomic force microscope. The hypothetical force is calculated in an experimental configuration (a sphere above a disk both covered by two metallic layers). The strengthenings of constraints up to 4 times comparing the previous experiment and up to 560 times comparing the Casimir force measurements between dielectrics are obtained in the interaction range 5.9 nm less than or equal to lambda less than or equal to 115 nm. Recent speculations about the presence of some unexplained attractive force in the considered experiment are shown ro be unjustified.
