5D gravity and the discrepant G measurements
It is shown that 5D Kaluza-Klein theory stabilized by an external bulk scalar
field may solve the discrepant laboratory G measurements. This is achieved by
an effective coupling between gravitation and the geomagnetic field.
Experimental considerations are also addressed.Comment: 13 pages, to be published in: Proceedings of the 18th Course of the
