| contents | We investigate the shift caused by asymmetry of spectroscopic lineshape in atomic interferometers, which has not previously been discussed in the scientific literature. This asymmetry arises because laser field is frequency-chirped not only during the free-evolution intervals of atoms, but also during the Ramsey pulses. As a result, the effective detuning from the working atomic transition during the pulses also depends on the chirping rate, which, in turn, leads to the lineshape-asymmetry-caused shift (LACS). It is shown that this shift has an inverse cubic dependence of $\propto 1/T^3$ on the duration of the interval between the Ramsey pulses $T$, which markedly contrasts with the $\propto 1/T^2$ dependence typical in atomic interferometry. Therefore, the metrological importance of this shift substantially increases for compact atomic interferometers with a short baseline. For example, for interferometers-gravimeters using two-photon transitions in rubidium atoms, at $T\sim 1$~ms we estimate the LACS shift and its variations at the level of 0.1-1~mGal, while for $T\sim 100$~$μ$s this can reach a value of 0.1-1~Gal. |
