Technical field
The present invention relates to especially a kind of absolute gravity measurement optical system of double freely falling bodies, the invention further relates to one
The absolute gravity measurement method of the double freely falling bodies of kind, belongs to high-precision absolute gravity measurement field.
Background technique
Currently, high-precision absolute gravimeter be a kind of light harvesting to begin one's study in the world from the seventies, electricity, computer,
Vacuum technique in detection Vertical ground motion, describes earth's surface mass redistribution, prediction whole world sea in integrated precision instrument
The science such as plane lifting, calibration relative gravity instrument drift, mineral products detection, airmanship and national defense construction field, which have, widely answers
With.Since the 1960s, with the high speed development of deep space exploration and missilery, every field is to high-precision absolute gravity
The requirement of measurement also constantly improves, and countries in the world all increase the investment to absolute gravimeter research.Common at present is absolute
Gravimeter model includes the JILA type absolute gravimeter in the U.S., and the FG5 absolute gravimeter and A10 flow model of Micro-g company are exhausted
To gravimeter, the MPG type absolute gravimeter of Italian IMGC type absolute gravimeter Germany, Russian GABL type absolute gravity
Instrument and the NIM type absolute gravimeter of China.Absolute gravimeter working principle includes freely falling body method, upthrow method etc., is freely fallen
The principle of body method is to determine distance when falling bodies do free-falling in gravitational field using laser interferometer, by rubidium atom
Clock measures the time of free-falling, then according to formulaAcquire the numerical values recited of absolute gravity.Upthrow method is substantially same
Freely falling body method is similar, and different modes is only taken in measuring route, to eliminate vacuum resistance, electrostatic force etc. draws
The systematic error risen.But complicated because shaking the big projectile mechanism of error caused by casting, therefore, common at present is high-precision absolute
What gravimeter largely used is all freely falling body method.
The working principle of free fall type absolute gravimeter is as follows: allow a prism of corner cube as falling bodies in high vacuum from
By falling, using measurements by laser interferometry prism of corner cube distance of fall S, under being measured accordingly using the synchronous clock signal of atomic clock
Time t is fallen, finally, the distance S and time value t that are obtained with least square method fitting actual measurement, add earth tide, air pressure, Ghandler motion
It is corrected Deng items, obtains the measured gravity acceleration value put, wherein distance S is equal to number of interference fringes N multiplied by laser half-wavelength
λ/2, uncertainty are guaranteed by the uncertainty of laser;The uncertainty of free-fall time is not by the true of atomic clock
Fixed degree is guaranteed.Simplified freely falling body distance of fall and the theoretical relationship of time beAt this
In the process, error derives from many aspects, measurement error caused by the vibration including the earth, and falling objects optical center mass center is not overlapped
Bring error, vacuum chamber residual gas molecule is for falling objects inhibition bring error etc..Due to freely falling body
Method is to discharge bracket after falling bodies are promoted to certain height by bracket to the control mode of falling bodies, and falling bodies is allowed to do free-falling
Movement, the drive force source of such falling bodies servo tracking mechanism is just at the vibration source of entire measuring system.Therefore, in falling
System self-vibration in the process is inevitably present, and this vibration will introduce system for the high-precision absolute measurement that precision is 10-8 magnitude
System error, simultaneously, it is contemplated that this error is the coupling generation vibrated with ground, with the difference of measuring point underground structure, coupling
The vibration mode generated afterwards is different, seriously affects application of the absolute gravimeter in mobile observation, presently the most successful shock insulation
Method, " super spring " active isolation systems exactly proposed by Micro-g company.
In addition to the absolute value of acceleration of gravity, gravity gradient value also has very high researching value, often through gravity ladder
Spend instrument measurement.Gravity gradiometer can be divided into gravimeter based on differential accelerometer and based on torque according to the difference of principle
Gravity gradiometer.In view of time-consuming for torque measuring method, stability is poor, and the influence vulnerable to hypsography, so, difference
Accelerometer gravimeter is the instrument of current measurement gravity gradient most common in the world[1].With laser technology and intervening atom
Technology flourishes, and the research and development of laser interference gravity gradiometer also become the core of scholars' research.Invention person
Possess the gravimeter research experience of decades with its team, and cooperated to grind with Institute of Geophosics of China Earthquake Administration in 2012
Chinese First " the earth's surface vertical gradient of gravity measuring system based on laser interferance method " is made.The program is by the vacuum of gravimeter
Chamber is divide into upper part and lower part, and each section all contains a set of falling bodies, bracket and guide rail, passes through gear, rack gear using a motor
Guarantee that two falling bodies that vertical interval is 50cm move up and down vertically simultaneously, moves synchronously so that installation error and foozle institute
Caused by radial force offset, ensured the stability of a whole set of unit.Test result finds the same of former double falling bodies free-fallings
Rigidity and the up rightness of double optical paths between step property, reference point and each optical component etc. are the weights for influencing its measurement accuracy
Want factor[2].However, in order to guarantee that two sets of optical paths are independent of each other completely up and down, two falling bodies are in addition to vertical in this scheme
Direction has distance outer, also there is the nearly gap of 10cm in the horizontal direction, and designer thinks this error to result in calculating
It influences less, to be ignored, if in fact wanting to further increase the precision of instrument, it is necessary to solve the problems, such as this.
In conclusion after consulting pertinent literature and summary and induction the absolute gravity measurement experience of decades, this patent
A kind of new absolute gravity measurement method and absolute gravimeter optical system are proposed, i.e., is connected two individual absolute gravimeters
It connects same and be divided into synchronizing in two upper and lower vacuum chambers and carry out whereabouts measurement, measures the whereabouts between two vacuum chambers
The reference point of distance, two falling bodies distance of falls of measurement is same point, overcomes the stiff problem between each optical component, interferometer
Three kinds of sampling processings are carried out for free-falling campaign, to eliminate error brought by ground vibration, realize high-acruracy survey.
This absolute gravity measurement method can acquire the absolute value and gradient value of acceleration of gravity simultaneously, greatly improve working efficiency.

Portion measures absolute gravity acceleration value, Δ gu、ΔgdRespectively indicate the systematic error that upper and lower part is introduced by measurement, ηhBe by
The gravitational acceleration gradient value of measuring point interval h, η are the gravitational acceleration gradient value of unit length, then ηh=η × h.
Since the reference point of two falling bodies whereabouts measurement distance is same reference point, then
Δgu=Δ gd=Δ g (4)
The measurement result that upper falling bodies measurement obtains is:
gcu=g0u+Δg (5)
The measurement result that whereabouts bulk measurement obtains is:
gcd=g0u+Δg+ηh (6)
Special designing is carried out to optical path, interferometer is placed on to the centre of two falling bodies, reference side and measurement side error superposition,
Then have:
gη=2 Δ g+ ηh (7)
It is obtained by formula (5), (6), (7):
gcu+gcd=2g0u+gη (8)
