The Gravitational Mass at the Superconducting State

TL;DR

This paper claims that electrons in superconductors have strongly negative gravitational masses, leading to a measurable reduction in the material's overall gravitational mass, especially under certain electromagnetic conditions.

Contribution

It introduces the novel idea that superconducting electrons possess negative gravitational mass, affecting the overall gravitational properties of superconductors.

Findings

Electrons in superconductors are strongly negative in gravitational mass.

The gravitational mass of mercury decreases by about 0.1% at the transition temperature.

Weight reduction increases with spinning or exposure to oscillating electromagnetic fields.

Abstract

It will be shown that the gravitational masses of the electrons of a superconducting material are strongly negative. Particularly, for an amount of mercury (Hg) at the transition temperature, Tc = 4.15 K, the negative gravitational masses of the electrons decrease the total gravitational mass of the Hg of approximately 0.1 percent. The weight reduction increase when the Hg is spinning inside a magnetic field or when it is placed into a strong oscillating EM field.
