MICROSCOPE mission: Statistics and impact of glitches on the test of the weak equivalence principle
Joel Bergé, Quentin Baghi, Alain Robert +6
MICROSCOPE's space test of the weak equivalence principle (WEP) is based on the minute measurement of the difference of accelerations experienced by two test masses as they orbit t…
MICROSCOPE mission: Data analysis principle
Joel Bergé, Quentin Baghi, Emilie Hardy +10
After performing highly sensitive acceleration measurements during two years of drag-free flight around the Earth, MICROSCOPE provided the best constraint on the Weak Equivalence P…
MICROSCOPE Satellite and its Drag-Free and Attitude Control System
Alain Robert, Valerio Cipolla, Pascal Prieur +14
This paper focus on the description of the design and performance of the MICROSCOPE satellite and its Drag-Free and Attitude Control System (DFACS). The satellite is derived from C…
MICROSCOPE mission analysis, requirements and expected performance
Pierre Touboul, Manuel Rodrigues, Gilles Métris +16
The MICROSCOPE mission aimed to test the Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP) to a precision of . The WEP states that two bodies fall at the same rate on a gravitational fiel…
MICROSCOPE instrument description and validation
Françoise Liorzou, Pierre Touboul, Manuel Rodrigues +19
Dedicated accelerometers have been developed for the MICROSCOPE mission taking into account the specific range of acceleration to be measured on board the satellite. Considering on…
