Due to steadily improving experimental accuracy, relativistic concepts - based on Einstein’s theory of Special and General Relativity - are playing an increasingly important role in modern geodesy. This book offers an introduction to the emerging field of relativistic geodesy, and covers topics ranging from the description of clocks and test bodies, to time and frequency measurements, to current and future observations. Emphasis is placed on geodetically relevant definitions and fundamental methods in the context of Einstein’s theory (e.g. the role of observers, use of clocks, definition of reference systems and the geoid, use of relativistic approximation schemes). Further, the applications discussed range from chronometric and gradiometric determinations of the gravitational field, to the latest (satellite) experiments. The impact of choices made at a fundamental theoretical level on the interpretation of measurements and the planning of future experiments is also highlighted. Providing an up-to-the-minute status report on the respective topics discussed, the book will not only benefit experts, but will also serve as a guide for students with a background in either geodesy or gravitational physics who are interested in entering and exploring this emerging field

The grand challenges of contemporary fundamental physics—dark matter, dark energy, vacuum energy, inflation and early universe cosmology, singularities and the hierarchy problem—all involve gravity as a key component. And of all gravitational phenomena, black holes stand out in their elegant simplicity, while harbouring some of the most remarkable predictions of General Relativity: event horizons, singularities and ergoregions. The hitherto invisible landscape of the gravitational Universe is being unveiled before our eyes: the historical direct detection of gravitational waves by the LIGO-Virgo collaboration marks the dawn of a new era of scientific exploration. Gravitational-wave astronomy will allow us to test models of black hole formation, growth and evolution, as well as models of gravitational-wave generation and propagation. It will provide evidence for event horizons and ergoregions, test the theory of General Relativity itself, and may reveal the existence of new fundamental fields. The synthesis of these results has the potential to radically reshape our understanding of the cosmos and of the laws of Nature. The purpose of this work is to present a concise, yet comprehensive overview of the state of the art in the relevant fields of research, summarize important open problems, and lay out a roadmap for future progress. This write-up is an initiative taken within the framework of the European Action on ‘Black holes, Gravitational waves and Fundamental Physics’.

Lichtpuls-Atominterferometrie findet in vielen Bereichen Anwendung, z.B. in der Gravimetrie, der Gradiometrie oder in der Messung von Rotationen. Das in dieser Arbeit beschriebene Experiment kann Bose-Einstein Kondensate mit annähernd 105 Rb Atomen bei einer Repetitionsrate von über 1Hz erzeugen. Darüber hinaus ist der Aufbau mobil, was für praktische Anwendungen und Experimente im Weltall wichtig ist. Jede Präzisionsmessung mittels Atominterferometrie stellt hohe Anforderungen an die magnetische Feldumgebung, die Kontrolle über Position und Geschwindigkeit des atomaren Ensembles sowie dessen Geschwindigkeitsstreuung. Diese Punkte werden systematisch und gründlich untersucht. Es werden Geschwindigkeitsstreuungen von 140μm/s entsprechend einer kinetischen Temperatur von nur 70pK experimentell realisiert. Diese Kollimation in 3D war durch das Zusammenspiel einer Quadrupolmode des Bose-Einstein Kondensats in der Auskoppelfalle zusammen mit einer axialsymmetrischen magnetischen Linse möglich. <dt.>
Light-pulse atom interferometry has a wide range of applications, for example in the fields of gravimetry, gradiometry and inertial sensing. The experiment described in this work can create Bose-Einstein condensates of almost 105 Rb atoms at a repetition rate exceeding 1Hz. The setup is also mobile, which is important for practical applications as well as for space-based experiments. Any precision measurement using atom interferometry has demanding requirements regarding the magnetic field environment, the control over the position and the velocity of the atomic ensemble as well as its velocity spread. All these points are systematically and thoroughly investigated. An ultrasmall velocity spread of 140μm/s equivalent to a kinetic temperature of 70pK is experimentally realized. This collimation in 3D was possible by the combination of a quadrupole mode collective excitation of the Bose-Einstein condensate within the release trap and an axially symmetric magnetic lens. <engl.>
