Archimedes is a feasibility study to a future experiment to ascertain the interaction of vacuum
fluctuations with gravity. The future experiment should measure the force that the Earth's
gravitational field exerts on a Casimir cavity by using a balance as the small force detector.
The Archimedes experiment analyses the important parameters in view of the final
measurement and experimentally explores solutions to the most critical problems.
