Comparison of scientific results obtained by CACTUS and other accelerometers
Abstract
A short description of several low-g accelerometers built in France, Italy, and the USA is given. Results obtained are indicated with particular scope of each experiment. At present CACTUS seems the most appropriate to measure the radiation pressure effect.
