Abstract: I will describe the main principles and challenges as well as some results of ultra-sensitive torsion-balance probes of fundamental physics performed by the University of Washington Eöt-Wash group. This group’s work was awarded the 2021 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics “for precision fundamental measurements that test our understanding of gravity, probe the nature of dark energy, and establish limits on couplings to dark matter.
