Laser gyroscope measures tiny fluctuations in Earth’s rotation – Physics World

Lab-sized instrument could shed light on shifting ocean currents

"After 30 years of painstaking development, researchers in Germany and New Zealand have unveiled a laser gyroscope that can track fluctuations in Earth’s rotation in near real time and accurate to several milliseconds. The technique is much simpler than current methods and could provide further insights into phenomena that cause the fluctuations – such as shifts in ocean currents.

The Earth rotates once in one day, but there are tiny fluctuations in the rate and direction of our planet’s rotation. Some of these fluctuations are well understood – for example those caused by the tidal forces of the Moon and Sun.

Other tiny fluctuations are not well understood including those related to the exchange of momentum between the solid Earth and the oceans, atmosphere and ice sheets. These effects can arise from climate events such as the El Niño southern oscillation, which change ocean currents. As a result, measuring fluctuations in Earth’s rotation could shed light on important processes in the atmosphere.

Most rotation studies involve combining data from global satellite navigation systems; very long baseline radio-astronomy observations of quasars; and laser ranging. Due to the complexity of combining these techniques, only one measurement can be made per day.

Now, a team headed by Ulrich Schreiber at the Technical University of Munich has created a laser gyroscope that can measure the tiny fluctuations in near real time. What is more, their instrument can fit into a large room."

By embracing the conclusion that the universe we know is a rare but every-so-often-expectable statistical fluctuation from a configuration of total disorder, we're quickly led into a quagmire in which we lose all understanding, including the very chain of reasoning that led us to consider such an odd explanation in the first place.*

* A closely related point is that we should convince ourselves that the world we see right now just coalesced out of total disorder, the exact same reasoning – invoked anytime later – would require us to abandon our current belief and, instead, attribute the ordered world to a yet more recent fluctuation. Thus, in this way of thinking, every next moment invalidates the beliefs held in each previous moment, a distinctly unconvincing way of explaining the cosmos.
