MICROSCOPE Mission scenario, ground segment and data processing
Manuel Rodrigues, Pierre Touboul, Gilles Métris +9
Testing the Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP) to a precision of requires a quantity of data that give enough confidence on the final result: ideally, the longer the measu…
MICROSCOPE: systematic errors
Manuel Rodrigues, Pierre Touboul1, Gilles Metris +19
The MICROSCOPE mission aims to test the Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP) in orbit with an unprecedented precision of 10 on the Eötvös parameter thanks to electrostatic acce…
MICROSCOPE instrument in-flight characterization
Ratana Chhun, Emilie Hardy, Manuel Rodrigues +11
Since the MICROSCOPE instrument aims to measure accelerations as low as a few 10\,m\,s and cannot operate on ground, it was obvious to have a large time dedicated to…
Exponential shapelets: basis functions for data analysis of isolated features
Joel Bergé, Richard Massey, Quentin Baghi +1
We introduce one- and two-dimensional `exponential shapelets': orthonormal basis functions that efficiently model isolated features in data. They are built from eigenfunctions of t…
The MICROSCOPE mission: first results of a space test of the Equivalence Principle
Pierre Touboul, Gilles Métris, Manuel Rodrigues +40
According to the Weak Equivalence Principle, all bodies should fall at the same rate in a gravitational field. The MICROSCOPE satellite, launched in April 2016, aims to test its va…
Determination of the Equivalence Principle violation signal for the MICROSCOPE space mission: optimization of the signal processing
Emilie Hardy, Agnès Levy, Gilles Métris +2
The MICROSCOPE space mission aims at testing the Equivalence Principle (EP) with an accuracy of . The test is based on the precise measurement delivered by a differential…
Validation of the in-flight calibration procedures for the MICROSCOPE space mission
Emilie Hardy, Agnès Levy, Manuel Rodrigues +2
The MICROSCOPE space mission aims to test the Equivalence Principle with an accuracy of . The drag-free micro-satellite will orbit around the Earth and embark a different…
Dealing with missing data in the MICROSCOPE space mission: An adaptation of inpainting to handle colored-noise data
Sandrine Pires, Joel Bergé, Quentin Baghi +2
The MICROSCOPE space mission, launched on April 25, 2016, aims to test the weak equivalence principle (WEP) with a 10^-15 precision. To reach this performance requires an accurate…
Dealing with missing data: An inpainting application to the MICROSCOPE space mission
Joel Bergé, Sandrine Pires, Quentin Baghi +2
Missing data are a common problem in experimental and observational physics. They can be caused by various sources, either an instrument's saturation, or a contamination from an ex…
