Abstract
The authors are developing a high precision inertial sensor. This device uses cold Caesium atoms manipulated by stimulated Raman transitions (Berman, 1997). As this setup is sensitive to both acceleration and rotation, two counter-propagating beams of cold atoms are used to discriminate between the two contributions. The last experimental results will be presented here
