Comparison of Standard and Ring Laser Rotational Seismograms
نویسنده
چکیده
Coupling mechanisms and detection thresholds are discussed for ring laser gyroscope measurement of seismic rotation, and simultaneous records f rom a ring laser and a standard EARSS seismograph 230 km from an ML 5.3 seismic event are compared. Rotation dominates tilt and strain in modulating the Sagnac frequency, and microseisms are not significant. Power spectral densities for the ring laser and for the seismograph signals are enhanced in the 0.2to 10-Hz range by up to 18 and 60 dB, respectively, over the noise floors ( 160 dB, of order nanoradians per second, and 130 dB, respectively). A seismic sideband of the Earth rotation spectrum is found. These ring laser signals have magnitudes consistent with the amplitude of the standard seismograph record.

The development of a sensor model for Large Ring Lasers and their application in seismic studies
The general ring laser operation model is adopted for the large gyroscopes C-II and G. An extended set of auxiliary sensors information is used for the long time period data modeling and ring laser behavior analysis with respect to the ideal case. Both instrumental errors and orientational effects are estimated and compensated where possible. The instrumental stability improved approximately fo...

This paper investigates the effect of inserting a ring type barrier on leakage flow of brush seals with different bristles clearances (the distance between bristle pack tip and rotor surface). The ring is placed on both upstream and downstream sides of the bristles. An axisymmetric CFD model is employed to calculate radial pressure distribution along backing plate, axial pressure variation on r...
متن کاملSensitivity Enhancement of Ring Laser Gyroscope Using Dielectric-Graphene Photonic Crystal
In a ring laser gyroscope, due to the rotation and the Sagnac effect, a phase difference between the two counter-propagating beams is generated. In this device, the higher phase difference between these two beams causes the better the interference pattern detection, and thus the sensitivity is increased. In this paper, the effect of inserting a dielectric-graphene photonic crystal inside a ring...

The cooling of molecules during the adiabatic expansion of supersonic seeded molecular beams is reviewed and illustrated by the example of NO -molecules. The reduction of the Doppler width by collimation of the beam and the cooling to low rotational temperatures brings a significant simplification of the complex NO -absorption spectrum and allows its assignment. The measured rotational tem...
