However, mechanical gyroscopes tend to drift over time and therefore include a mechanism to keep the spin axis upright with respect to the direction of gravity. The ADI42-124 uses an entirely ...

Gyroscopes are perfect to damper short impulses of external forces but will eventually succumb if a constant force, like gravity, is applied. Once the axis of rotation of the mass aligns with the ...

Setting gravity to nearly zero allows one to carry out experiments and observations not possible with table-top experiments on Earth. The goal of this project is to demonstrate an ultracold atom ...
