    Abstract

    The Randall-Sundrum models are expected to modify the short distance behaviour of general relativity. In this paper, we will propose an experimental test for this short distance modification due to Randall-Sundrum models. This will be done by the analysing motion of a particle which is moving in spherical gravitational field with a drag force. The position at which the particle stops will be different in general relativity and Randall-Sundrum model. This difference in the distance moved by the particle before stopping can be measured using a nanoelectromechanical setup. Thus, it is possible to experimentally test Randall-Sundrum models using currently available technology.
