Superconducting-Cavity Accelerometer

Abstract

Resonant frequency of microwave superconducting cavity sensitive to gravitation and acceleration. Sensitive accelerometer assembled by combining superconducting microwave cavity and conventional microwave semiconductor oscillator circuit. Device measures acelerations as small as 10-10 cm/S2 (10-13 g's). Also configured to measure small gradients in gravitational field of Earth.
