It is a textbook based on the graduate courses on ?Experimental Gravitation? given by the authors at their respective universities in Rome: Sapienza and Tor Vergata. A number of different research topics in the field are covered: from the torsion pendulum (still today the tool of choice for measuring small forces or torques) to the large interferometers developed to observe gravitational waves. Techniques that are still under development are also discussed, like the pulsar timing array and space-based detectors of the future. This book is written by experimentalists for experimentalists. While the background physics is summarized for less experienced readers, the emphasis is certainly on experimental verifications: the strategy, the apparatuses, the data analysis and the results of many cornerstone experiments are analyzed and discussed in depth. This textbook serves as a useful resource for both graduate students and professionals working in the increasingly vibrant field of experimental gravity. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Physics,$x1616-6361 ;$v998 606 $aGravitation 606 $aQuantitative research 606 $aPhysics 606 $aClassical and Quantum Gravity 606 $aGravitational Physics 606 $aData Analysis and Big Data 606 $aApplied and Technical Physics 615 0$aGravitation. 615 0$aQuantitative research. 615 0$aPhysics. 615 14$aClassical and Quantum Gravity. 615 24$aGravitational Physics. 615 24$aData Analysis and Big Data. 615 24$aApplied and Technical Physics. 676 $a531.14 676 $a531.14 700 $aRicci$b Fulvio$0535652 702 $aBassan$b Massimo 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910586583703321 996 $aExperimental Gravitation$92905331 997 $aUNINA
