Gradiometer and method of changing an optical path length to directly obtain a value of a gradient of gravity

A gradient of gravity is defined by a change in the optical path length required to maintain equality in optical path lengths of two beam arms which direct light beams to impinge upon and reflect from two freefalling test masses.
