In the late 1950s, the caesium standard was used to measure both the current mean length of the second of mean solar time (UT2) (9.192.631.830cycles) and also the second of ephemeris time (ET) (9.192.631.770±20cycles), see L Essen«Time Scales».Metrologia,4,4,1968,p.161–165. Bibcode: 1968Metro...4..161E. DOI: 10.1088/0026-1394/4/4/003.. As noted in page 162, the 9.192.631.770 figure was chosen for the SI second. L Essen in the same 1968 article stated that this value "seemed reasonable in view of the variations in UT2".
