Optomechanical Accelerometers for Geodesy [PDF]
We present a novel optomechanical inertial sensor for low-frequency applications and corresponding acceleration measurements. This sensor has a resonant frequency of 4.715 (1) Hz, a mechanical quality factor of 4.76(3) × 105, a test mass of 2.6 g, and a projected noise floor of approximately 5 × 10−11 ms−2/Hz at 1 Hz.

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.

Quantum metrology enables new applications in geodesy, including relativistic geodesy. The recent progress in optical atomic clocks and in long-distance frequency transfer by optical fiber together pave the way for using measurements of the gravitational frequency redshift for geodesy. The remote comparison of frequencies generated by calibrated clocks

Advanced relativistic VLBI model for geodesy
Our present relativistic part of the geodetic VLBI model for Earthbound antennas is a consensus model which is considered as a standard for processing high-precision VLBI observations. It was created as a compromise between a variety of relativistic VLBI

A simplified gravitational reference sensor for satellite geodesy [PDF]
A simplified gravitational reference sensor (S-GRS) is an ultra-precise inertial sensor for future Earth geodesy missions. These sensors measure or compensate for all non-gravitational accelerations of the host spacecraft to remove them in the data ...

Geodesy of irregular small bodies via neural density fields
Asteroids’ and comets’ geodesy is a challenging yet important task for planetary science and spacecraft operations, such as ESA’s Hera mission tasked to look at the aftermath of the recent NASA DART spacecraft’s impact on Dimorphos.
