As Thorium nuclear spectroscopy progresses, it promises to be a unique and powerful quantum senor of the strong nuclear force. In an analogy, once clock errors arising from electromagnetism are understood and quantified, an optical lattice clock may be used as a sensor to measure effects arising from gravity. One application is relativistic geodesy, where earth’s geoid can be mapped via...
