sorry, this got a little bit long....
Initiating a Concise Discurse about "Three Podkletnov experiments"
Herein I want to reinitialize the scientific discurse again.
The Physicist Evgeny.Podkletnov
The experiment has never been reproduced yet,
In the 2020s the necessary technical equipment should be creatable.
But this experiment seems to be completely forgotten in the conscience of the scientific community.
# Useful Physical Knowledge for this discussion, #
- knowledge in Experimental-Physics,
- knowledge in Theoretical Physics like: QM, Spin-Physics, Bloch-Theorem,
additionally
- Electrodynamics
- basic knowledge about General Theory of Relativity
=>--- see below for the target of this discussion ---
# Historical: negative reception in the scientific community #
The measured effect lead in the eyes of the writer of these lines to completely over-excessive pressure on the involved scientists. Mr. Podkletnov was not allowed to finish his experiments and a try to publish the document failed due to in my eyes unjustified overreaction of the "scientific world". Other involved Physicists suffered by damage in scientific reputation.
In the end the measurement results landed in the corner "Fringe-Physics".
The mistakes that was made
is somehow strategic.
The Authors bond the experimental measurement to a theoretical explanation,
that was out of bounds for serious mainstream science.
The given hypothesis has been:
"Shielding of Gravity by the rotating superconducting disc (Antigravity)"
-------------------------- -------------------------- --------------------------
My approach is the following
Why can an experimental physicist not measure something unexpected
that is against the mainstream knowledge without getting harmed defamatory?
From a historical point of view
has the theory about "Energy Conservation" been delayed 2 decades,
before it made its way to mainstream science.
The scientific, physical community even should not make same mistake again,
even if the probability may be very small.

Description of "The 1st Podkletnov Experiment"
The unique experimental setup based on
Mr. Podkletnov reported the observation
Seen from a science-historical view, the "only mistake" that was made by the scientist Podkletnov and collegues
to hand out explanation directly together with his experimental results.
It was interpreted as a gravitational shielding.
====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ====== ======
in total 3 experiments have been conducted.
In the "3rd Podkletnov experiment" --- The layout was kind of horizontally.
Mr. Evgeny.Podkletnov constructed and built a Spark-generating apparatus, working at slightly reduced pressure chamber. The observed (obviously) unusual spark-stream between a superconductor and the opposite plate indicated in the horizontal direction.
A short horizontal-impulse correlated to the spark direction and the timing was observed.
The impulse has been described to be large enough to push a standing booklet from the table. (!!!) The apparatus is labelled Impulse Gravity Generator (IGG) by its creator.
# Target of this discussion group #
These experiments started more than 2 decades ago, and have been forgotten.
Herein, the writer of these lines
tries to restart a sober SCIENTIFIC discussion on the PHYSICS of the observation.
## Long term GOALs ##
- is to start a CONCISE and scientific discussion about the PHYSICS ,
- trying to find possibilities to reproduce the three Podkletnov-Experiments,
- to develop a theoretical approach
- suggest new experimental setups
a side task
- will be to simply collect any hypothetic reasons "of the physical background" and to categorize these by plausibility and experimental provability.
## My prework##
I start this discussion group at www.researchgate.net,
as I have
Additionally have an initial idea/clue,
## Rules in this Discussions##
- Respectful, friendly and adequate ways of communication is expected.
Not accepted:
- claims this (shall||must) not be a topic of ANY discussion are not followed
- completely nuts contributions about application of the effect are not accepted(e.g. Antigravity Space-ship drives).
