Abstract
It is shown using the Einstein equations with account for the energy–momentum tensor of the electromagnetic field on the right-hand side of these equations, apart from the mass tensor, that the situation when the weightlessness effect (or levitation in the generally accepted terminology) is possible. In this article, detailed physical considerations concerning the qualitative analysis of the possible effect of electromagnetic fields on the metric properties of the spatiotemporal continuum are presented. The discussion of this question is necessitated primarily by the fact that the formal introduction of any (not only gravitational) types of energy–momentum suggests that these factors also affect the metric properties of space–time. The fractal dependence of the mass of baryons on their lifetime, which is an important factor in the prediction of other types of baryons, is also considered. The value of the electric field for which the levitation effect can exist is given.
期刊介绍:
Technical Physics is a journal that contains practical information on all aspects of applied physics, especially instrumentation and measurement techniques. Particular emphasis is put on plasma physics and related fields such as studies of charged particles in electromagnetic fields, synchrotron radiation, electron and ion beams, gas lasers and discharges. Other journal topics are the properties of condensed matter, including semiconductors, superconductors, gases, liquids, and different materials.
