  1. Precision measurements with ultracold atoms and molecules are primed to probe beyond-the-standard model physics. Isotopologues of homonuclear molecules are a natural testbed for new Yukawa-type mass-dependent forces at nanometer scales, complementing existing mesoscopic-body and neutron scattering experiments. Here, we propose using isotopic shift measurements in molecular lattice clocks to constrain these new interactions from new massive scalar particles in thekeV/c2range: The new interaction would impart an extra isotopic shift to molecular levels on top of one predicted by the standard model. For the strontium dimer, a Hz-level agreement between experiment and theory could constrain the coupling of the new particles to hadrons by up to an order of magnitude over the most stringent existing experiments.
