Words, Bones, Genes, Tools: DFG Center for Advanced Studies

The series aims to further the foundations for a cross-disciplinary field of bio- cultural co-evolution by addressing topics on linguistic, cultural, and biological trajectories of the human past. It aims to push the limits of cooperation between traditional disciplines, bringing together reviews, original research, and perspectives from scholars in linguistics, anthropology, genomics, and archaeology. Volumes in this series include invited papers and proceedings from symposia hosted by the DFG Center for Advanced Studies at the University of Tübingen. The series is funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG FOR 2237: Project “Words, Bones, Genes, Tools: Tracking Linguistic, Cultural and Biological Trajectories of the Human Past”).

<p>The transportable Quantum Gravimeter QG-1 is designed to determine the local gravity to the nm/s² level of uncertainty. It relies on the interferometric interrogation of magnetically collimated Bose-Einstein condensates in a transportable setup consisting of a sensor head and an electronics supply unit.<br>In this contibution we introduce the measurement concept and discuss it's impact on the measurement uncertainty. We are reporting on the first gravity data taken with the device over the course of three days thereby validating the operability and the measurement concept applied in QG-1.<br>We acknowledge financial support from "Niedersachsisches Vorab" through "Förderung von Wissenschaft und Technik in Forschung und Lehre" for the initial funding of research in the new DLR-SI Institute. Funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) under Germany's Excellence Strategy - EXC-2123 QuantumFrontiers - 390837967 and under Project-ID 434617780 - SFB 1464.</p>
