Abstract
The fifth in the series of International Comparisons of Absolute Gravimeters (ICAG) was held at the Bureau International des Folds et Measures (BIPM) in November 1997. Fifteen absolute gravimeters participated in the comparison. The mean gravity value obtained at station A (0.9 m) at the BIPM was found to be 980 925 707.8 mu Gal with a standard uncertainty of 2.8 mu Gal. This is consistent with the results obtained in previous comparisons at this site. Conclusions based on the analysis of the present results and proposals for future activities are presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
