Abstract: Constraints for the constants of hypothetical Yukawa-type corrections to the Newtonian gravitational potential are obtained from analysis of neutron scattering experiments. Restrictions are obtained for the interaction range between 10 −12 and 10 −7 cm, where Casimir force experiments and atomic-force microscopy are not sensitive. Experimental limits are obtained also for nonelectromagnetic inverse-power-law neutron-nucleus potentials. Some possibilities are discussed to strengthen these constraints.
