Podkletnov's first peer-reviewed paper on the apparent gravity-modification effect, published in 1992, attracted little notice. [3] In 1996, he submitted a longer paper, in which he claimed to have observed a larger effect (2% weight reduction as opposed to 0.3% in the 1992 paper) to the Journal of Physics D.
Chin-Sen Ting is a Chinese American physicist from Taiwan and an academic.He is a distinguished professor of physics at the University of Houston. [1]Through his research, Ting has explored condensed matter theories in semiconductors, magnetism, superconductivity, and correlated electron systems, focusing on solid state systems using methods like diagrammatic many body theory and Monte Carlo ...
The electrons within a CDW form a standing wave pattern and sometimes collectively carry an electric current. The electrons in such a CDW, like those in a superconductor, can flow through a linear chain compound en masse, in a highly correlated fashion. Unlike a superconductor, however, the electric CDW current often flows in a jerky fashion ...
The table below shows some of the parameters of common superconductors. X:Y means material X doped with element Y, T C is the highest reported transition temperature in kelvins and H C is a critical magnetic field in tesla. "BCS" means whether or not the superconductivity is explained within the BCS theory.
Eugene Podkletnov, a Russian engineer, has claimed since the early 1990s to have made such a device consisting of a spinning superconductor producing a powerful "gravitomagnetic field." In 2006, a research group funded by ESA claimed to have created a similar device that demonstrated positive results for the production of gravitomagnetism ...
On August 20, 2015, D-Wave released the general availability of their D-Wave 2X computer, with 1000 qubits in a Chimera graph architecture (although, due to magnetic offsets and manufacturing variability inherent in the superconductor circuit fabrication, fewer than 1152 qubits are functional and available for use; the exact number of qubits ...
For example, those used in the Gravity Probe B experiment measured changes in gyroscope spin axis orientation to better than 0.5 milliarcseconds (1.4 × 10 −7 degrees) over a one-year period. [2] This is equivalent to an angular separation the width of a human hair viewed from 32 kilometers (20 miles) away.
Ceramic superconductors cannot be bolted or welded together to form superconducting junctions. Ceramic superconductors must be cast in their final shape when created. This may increase production costs. [citation needed] Ceramic superconductors can be more easily driven out of superconductivity by oscillating magnetic fields.
