The Mw > 9 Sumatra‐Andaman earthquake on December 26, 2004 has strongly excited the low‐frequency seismic modes and is a unique opportunity to improve the frequency and damping measurements of the gravest seismic modes. The precise estimation of the frequency splitting of the seismic modes below 1 mHz is needed to improve 1D‐density models of the Earth. From this event, 2S1 is observed for the first time without any stacking on both SG (Superconducting Gravimeter) and seismic records. We report here analyses of SG data obtained from 11 sites. The spectra of SG records clearly show the splitting of 0S2 into 5 completely resolved singlets and the splitting of 0S3 into 7 singlets at individual stations. The present results demonstrate that SGs provide high quality data for a precise analysis of the low‐frequency seismic modes.
