Operational significance of the deviation equation in relativistic geodesy [PDF]
Deviation equation: Second order differential equation for the 4-vector which measures the distance between reference points on neighboring world lines in spacetime manifolds. Relativistic geodesy: Science representing the Earth (or any planet), including the measurement of its gravitational field, in a four-dimensional curved spacetime using ...

Atomic clocks: new prospects in metrology and geodesy [PDF]
We present the latest developments in the field of atomic clocks and their applications in metrology and fundamental physics. In the light of recent advents in the accuracy of optical clocks, we present an introduction to the relativistic modelization of frequency transfer and a detailed review of chronometric geodesy.

A new laser-ranged satellite for General Relativity and space geodesy: I. An introduction to the LARES2 space experiment [PDF]
We introduce the LARES 2 space experiment recently approved by the Italian Space Agency (ASI). The LARES 2 satellite is planned for launch in 2019 with the new VEGA C launch vehicle of ASI, ESA and ELV. The orbital analysis of LARES 2 experiment will be carried out by our international science team of experts in General Relativity, theoretical physics,

Gravitational-Wave Geodesy: A New Tool for Validating Detection of the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background [PDF]
A valuable target for advanced gravitational-wave detectors is the stochastic gravitational-wave background. The stochastic background imparts a weak correlated signal into networks of gravitational-wave detectors, and so standard searches for the gravitational-wave background rely on measuring cross-correlations between pairs of widely-separated ...
