Atom interferometryoffers extremely high sensitivity in measuring acceleration,
gravitational fields andtheir gradients, and rotations. In addition to precision mea-
surements of fundamentalconstants and experiments designed for probing general
relativity and newtheories of gravity, atom interferometers are a promising technol-
ogy for fieldapplications such as mobile gravity surveys and navigational systems.
Such applicationsrequire operation in mobile, and potentially noisy, environments
and measuringrapidly-changing, unknown signals. This research focuses on improv-
ing the robustness ofatom interferometers under such challenging conditions, and
specifically their scalefactor stability and dynamic range.
