Electric Propulsion Study

Abstract

This report reviews inductive theories and experimental approaches which provide for interactions between gravitational and electromagnetic fields. The theoretical section develops a general relativistic five dimensional theory to the point that electromagnetic effects can be interpreted. Emphasis is placed on modifications to the classical Maxwell equations and field vector equations. The theories are then often used to propose specific experimental studies which can verify the electromagnetic and gravitational interactions. Specific recommendations are made for experiments that would both verify the theories and serve as a basis for electric propulsive systems that would convert between electromagnetic and inertial momentum.
