Welcome to BFO

For the first time, ring lasers - measuring rotational motions of Earth as a whole as well as local ground rotations - approach an accuracy level that may 1) solve the long-standing problem of observing short-term sub-daily variations of Earth’s rotation, and 2) provide solutions to highest-sensitivity ground rotation observations relevant for geophysical and planetary applications, as well as gravitational wave detection. The RING Research Unit will build on decades of world-leading research in the field of ring lasers and related technologies and their applications in Earth sciences, involving research groups in photonics, metrology, geodesy, and geophysics. [...]rotation data of improved signal-to-noise ratio will be available for the RING projects to analyze Earth orientation parameters, length of day and long-period seismic waves.
