  1. gravity gradient

    Gravity gradient refers to the rate at which gravitational acceleration changes, often with respect to distance from the source of gravity. It is a measure of the spatial variation of gravitational forces and can be a significant force in celestial mechanics and geophysics. This gradient is particularly relevant in fields such as astrophysics, space exploration, and earth-orbiting satellites where small differences in gravity can have significant effects.
