[SGD01-07] Absolute Gravity Measurements at Teshikaga in 2019 and 2020
Keywords:absolute gravimeter, superconducting gravimeter, instrumental drift, Teshikaga
Absolute gravity measurements were conducted at the Teshikaga Observatory, Hokkaido University in 2019 and 2020, with the main purpose of providing temporal gravity changes for calibrating the instrumental drift of the Superconducting Gravimeter iGrav #17. Temporal drift of the Rubidium clock for the absolute gravimeter as well as an offset of the built-in barometer was also measured and taken into account in determining gravity acceleration. The final estimates of the mean gravity value at Teshikaga were 980 518 908.41 µGal (2019) and 980 518 906.56 µGal (2020).
