Abstract
A differential accelerometer consisting of a solid sphere floating freely inside a stratified saline solution has been used to search for a composition-dependent force, originated by a mountain relief. No evidence of such a force has been obtained. From the upper limit to the velocity of the sphere, νm/h, the differential acceleration field between solid and liquid comes out to be less than 2.4 nGal.Keywords
