Abstract

The passive ring laser resonator of square size with a side equal to 3.1 m is created in Sternberg State Astronomical Institute for the determination of the Earth angular rate. This work deals with the construction of the resonator and mode-watching system, estimation of the resonator parameters, the influence of the temperature variations on the mode structure, the control of the resonator perimeter, the influence of the nonplanarity and the light polarization on the quality factor and, thus, on the accuracy of the Earth rotation measurements.
