Another to have landed the spoils on Dubai's biggest raceday is Cityscape (GB) (Selkirk), the Juddmonte-bred G1 Dubai Duty Free winner who made eye-catching strides with his first crop of 3-year-old runners last season. To reinforce the breadth of stallion talent on offer at Overbury, one of the busiest members of the crew last year was Ardad (Ire), whose similarity to his sire Kodiac (GB) mixed with his commercial market appeal of speed and precocity had the owners of 132 mares beating a path to his door during his debut season. In looks and background, he is almost a polar opposite to the 16.3-hand Schiaparelli (Ger) (Monsun {Ger}), whose 12 victories--including five Group 1s--from 21 starts across four seasons tell their own tale of his particular brand of reliable Kayf Tara at Overbury Stud | Emma Berry German engineering.

With a much smaller pool of National Hunt mares in Britain compared to Ireland and France, the UK has often struggled to compete when attempting to attract appealing jump stallions.

  • Comparison of Gravitational and Light Frequency Shifts in Rubidium Atomic Clock
    universe Communication Comparison of Gravitational and Light Frequency Shifts in Rubidium Atomic Clock Alexey Baranov, Sergey Ermak *, Roman Lozov and Vladimir Semenov The Institute of Physics, Nanotechnology and Telecommunications, Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, 195251 Saint Petersburg, Russia; [email protected] (A.B.); [email protected] (R.L.); [email protected] (V.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +7-921-791-9091 Abstract: The article presents the results of an experimental study of the external magnetic field orientation and magnitude influence on the rubidium atomic clock, simulating the influence of the geomagnetic field on the onboard rubidium atomic clock of navigation satellites. The tensor component value of the atomic clock frequency light shift on the rubidium cell was obtained, and this value was ∼2 Hz. The comparability of the relative light shift (∼10−9) and the regular gravitational correction 4 × 10−10 to the frequency of the rubidium atomic clock was shown. The experimental results to determine the orientational shift influence on the rubidium atomic clock frequency were presented. A significant effect on the relative frequency instability of a rubidium atomic clock at a level of 10−12 10−13 for rotating external magnetic field amplitudes of 1.5 A/m and 3 A/m was demonstrated. This magnitude corresponds to the geomagnetic field in the orbit of navigation satellites. The necessity of taking into account various factors (satellite orbit parameters and atomic clock characteristics) is substantiated for correct comparison of corrections to the rubidium onboard atomic clock frequency associated with the Earth’s gravitational field action and the satellite orientation in the geomagnetic field.
