Abstract

We have carefully reexamined the results of the experiment of Eötvös, Pekár, and Fekete, which compared the accelerations of various materials to the Earth. We find that the Eötvös-Pekár-Fekete data are sensitive to the composition of the materials used, and that their results support the existence of an intermediate-range coupling to baryon number or hypercharge.
