…relatively recent development is the superconducting gravimeter, an instrument in which the position of a magnetically levitated superconducting sphere is sensed to provide a measure of g. Modern gravimeters may have sensitivities better than 0.005 milligal, the standard deviation of observations in exploration surveys being of the order of 0.01–0.02…
