Accurate Gravimetry at the BIPM Watt Balance Site
Original language description
Accurate gravity measurements were made to support the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) watt balance (WB) project in association with the 8th International Comparison of Absolute Gravimeters (ICAG-2009) and the accompanying Relative Gravity Campaign (RGC-2009) at the BIPM in 2009. The goal of WB project is to determine the Planck constant h for the realization of a new definition of the kilogram. The accurate value of free fall acceleration g is crucial for the precise determination of h. During the formal ICAG-2009 and the RGC-2009, four absolute and six relative gravimeters took part in the WB gravity campaign. The results can therefore be converted to the international reference of the ICAG results, i.e., they are SI-traceable. The WB gravity network is a regular 3D grid over the site in the WB laboratory that serves to evaluate gravity acceleration at the test mass centre of the future WB setup. The local Earth tide parameters were determined by analyzing a 6-mon
