Secrets of Antigravity Propulsion (62 page)

*32
In addition to these G-on fluxes, X-on and Y-on fluxes would be induced by the radial X-on and Y-on concentration gradients, which in conventional physics are the counterparts of the electric field.
Thus, at the MEC’s negatively charged rim, X-on concentration would be elevated and Y-on concentration depressed, while at the MEC’s center, X-on concentration would be depressed and Y-on concentration would be elevated.
Consequently, accompanying the centripetal flow of G-ons there would be a centripetal flow of X-ons and a centrifugal flow of Y-ons.

*33
If a spacecraft was built with the MEC or Searl generator as its central engine, it would be beneficial to convey the electrons emitted from the generator’s rim to the hull of the craft, which would be electrically insulated from the generator’s positive plate.
This would cause the entire craft to be surrounded by a high-voltage negative potential and a matter-repelling gravity potential hill.

CHAPTER 11

*34
Period
=2π
√
L ⁄ G
, in which L
is the length of the pendulum cord and
g
is the gravitational acceleration.

*35
Naudin’s Q value was likely lower than that of Dimitriou’s antenna because Naudin made his loops from uncoated wire that was subject to surface oxidation and, hence, would have had a greater surface resistance.
At megahertz frequencies, such as were used in this experiment, current flows mainly on the wire surface.
Hence, surface oxides can diminish the antenna’s Q value.

CHAPTER 12

*36
Turman did not state the thickness of his slats.

*37
To compare this with Naudin’s lifter model, whose three fins had a combined length of 90 centimeters and which was energized at a voltage about twice as high, we must scale up this thrust by a factor of 16, giving a thrust of 5 millinewtons, or 0.5 gram.
By comparison, Naudin’s lifter tested in air achieved a thrust of 4 grams, eightfold greater.

*38
Based on Naudin’s theoretical thrust projection

CHAPTER 13

*39
Interestingly, Turman’s cylindrical thruster experiment (see
chapter 12
) bears a close resemblance to Campbell’s asymmetrical capacitor; compare figure 13.2 to figure 12.1.
Turman’s research predates Campbell’s patent application by at least twenty-six years.

APPENDICES

*40
The reaction is as follows: protons are accelerated to 6.2 bev, and directed at a target of copper.
When the proton projectile hits a neutron in one of the copper atoms the following emerge: the two original particles (the projectile and the struck neutron) and a new pair of particles, a proton and anti-proton.
The anti-proton continues briefly until it hits another proton, then both disappear and decay into mesons.

*41
Though in a sense this is true, it is better expressed in this report than it was here in 1954.

*42
The proposals, it should be added, were not accepted.
