Results of the European Comparison of Absolute Gravimeters inWalferdange (Luxembourg) of November 2007

Result description

The second international comparison of absolute gravimeters was held in Walferdange in November 2007, in which twenty absolute gravimeters took part. A short description of the data processing and adjustments is presented here followed by the presentation of the results. Two different methods were applied to estimate the relative offsets between the gravimeters. We show that the results are equivalent as the uncertainties of both adjustments overlap. The absolute gravity meters agree with one another with a standard deviation of 2 ?Gal.
