The second-order autoregressive AR(2) model is used to analyze rotational data for seismic events captured by a large ring laser gyroscope. Both the Sagnac frequency and linewidth estimates obtained from this model sense the rotational components of seismic waves. An event of magnitude M L = 6.5 at a distance of D = 5.4° from a large ring laser gyroscope operating at its quantum limit is used to compare the AR(2) model with the previous analytical phase angle method of analysis. The frequency, linewidth and analytic phase angle data each satisfactorily estimate the rotation magnitude. The direct detection of rotational motion in the P wave coda is observed, demonstrating the conversion to transverse S wave polarizations by the local geology.

Abstract With the fast development of the large ring laser gyroscope (RLG) technology in the last decades, promising applications in geophysics and geodesy (e.g. observations of high-frequency variations of Earth's rotation, Earth's tide tilt and seismic waves) have been realized by various groups with currently running large RLGs. In this letter, we point out that in a large number of previous tilt correction models a significant term is missing. This term is related with the Shida number l2 (called l2-term in the following) and has a contribution, which is comparable with that from high-frequency Earth rotation variations due to ocean tides, to the Sagnac frequency record of RLGs. This term has to be removed (as part of the tilt correction) from the raw data so that RLGs can efficiently be employed as Earth's rotation detectors.
