This book features a comprehensive review of experimental
gravitation. It is a textbook based on the graduate courses on
"Experimental Gravitation" given by the authors at their respective
universities in Rome: Sapienza and Tor Vergata. A number of
different research topics in the field are covered: from the
torsion pendulum (still today the tool of choice for measuring
small forces or torques) to the large interferometers developed to
observe gravitational waves. Techniques that are still under
development are also discussed, like the pulsar timing array and
space-based detectors of the future. This book is written by
experimentalists for experimentalists. While the background physics
is summarized for less experienced readers, the emphasis is
certainly on experimental verifications: the strategy, the
apparatuses, the data analysis and the results of many cornerstone
experiments are analyzed and discussed in depth. This textbook
serves as a useful resource for both graduate students and
professionals working in the increasingly vibrant field of
experimental gravity.
