Imanishi Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that explores the dynamics of the Earth's interior through tiny changes in gravity.
AboutAbout the lab
Measuring gravity precisely to understand the Earth's interior
The Imanishi Lab studies the interior of the Earth through gravity observations.
Its field is geodesy, the science of measuring the shape of the Earth and its gravity.
Using precise gravity observations with a superconducting gravimeter, the lab investigates the dynamics occurring inside the Earth.
Key terms
- Geodesy
- The science of measuring and studying the shape and size of the Earth, the distribution of gravity, and how these change over time
- Superconducting gravimeter
- An instrument that continuously measures very small changes in gravity by tracking changes in the position of a sphere levitated by superconductivity
ResearchResearch themes
Using precise gravity observations with a superconducting gravimeter, the lab studies the dynamics of the Earth's interior.
