Updating the Precise Gravity Network at the BIPM
Original language description
The goal of maintaining an accurate gravity network at the BIPM headquarters is twofold: firstly to support the International Comparison of Absolute Gravimeters (ICAG), and secondly to support the BIPM watt balance (WB) project, which aims at determiningthe Planck constant h or realizing a future new definition of the kilogrambased on a fixed value of h. In addition the absolute gravity measurements, Relative Gravity Campaign (RGC) is organized as part of each ICAG. In this paper, we briefly recall thebackground of the ICAG/RGC2009 and outline the new characteristics of the updated network, the organization and the performance of the measurements. Finally we present preliminary results from the RGC2009.
