An athermal open-loop hung mass accelerometer configures the CTE of the sensor heads such that any growth by the body in response to a body temperature gradient along the longitudinal axis is offset by the growth of the sensor heads in the equal and opposite direction to null the effects of the temperature gradient. In many configurations, the sensor head CTE is strictly less than the body CTE and typically between 60-80% of the body CTE to null the effects of the predicted body temperature gradient.
