Abstract: Quartz accelerometers used in space are made of fused quartz glass.It is the most important characterization.Their springy supports are easily fragile because of bad conditions in space,such as vibration,shock,changing temperature between high and low.Experiments on their fracture characterization are made and many important data or results are obtained.
