A cold atoms gravimeter for use in absolute gravity comparisons
This thesis describes the construction of high precision absolute gravimeter, aiming at realising a comparison with a state-of-the-art gravimeter. The instrument is based on performing Raman atom interferometry on ensembles of laser-cooled 87Rb atoms in an atomic fountain. The highlight of this work...
