Summary

In the present paper the gravity acceleration in the neighbourhood of the earth-atmosphere interface is analyzed. The solution of the actio-reactio equations (see [7, 8]) are compared with the data measured by Holding et al. [4] in mines and Eckehardt et al. [6] on a tower.

Übersicht

Analysiert wird die Gravitationsbeschleunigung in der Nähe der Grenze Erde/Atmosphäre. Die Lösung der Actio/Reactio-Gleichungen (vgl. [7, 8]) wird mit den Daten, die von Holding et al. [4] und von Eckehardt et al. [6] im Bergwerk bzw. auf einem Turm gemessen wurden, verglichen.
