No page. The effect is nothing very special. No relativity.
Mostly just the effect of the oscillator's "G" sensitivity caused by tilting and acceleration as it swings.
What is generally measured with a 2 G static turn over test.
The thing about the test is that it gives a signal that is very hard to measure and a wave form shape that is easy to verify. This shows how good the TPLL is at detecting small frequency changes very quickly. The TPLL2.0 gives the best results for that test that I've seen from any instrument.

Neat!  Is there a page explaining a bit more about it?

I was summarizing the Hafele-Keating experiment to my brother the other day -- just bullshitting, really, 'cause I barely know what's going on here myself -- so it occurs to me to wonder. Acceleration is probably the cause, but a mechanical effect in the oscillator, "something tightened in cockpit"? Surely not a relativistic effect. Not at 18 inches. (This is where we figure out that I grasp the concepts, but can't actually do the problems.)
