A new type of device for controlling gravity is here proposed. This is a quantum device because results
from the behaviour of the matter and energy at subatomic length scale (10-20m). From the technical point of
view this device is easy to build, and can be used to develop several devices for controlling gravity.
Key words: Gravitation, Gravitational Mass, Inertial Mass, Gravity, Quantum Device.

Introduction
Some years ago I wrote a paper [1]
where a correlation between gravitational
mass and inertial mass was obtained. In the
paper I pointed out that the relationship
between gravitational mass, m g , and rest

the weight is equal in both sides of the

lamina. The lamina works as a Gravity
Controller. Since P = P = (mg )g = mg (g ) ,
we can consider that
m g = m g or that g = g

inertial mass, mi 0 , is given by

In the last years, based on these concepts, I

have proposed some types of devices for
controlling gravity. Here, I describe a device,
which acts controlling the electric field in the
Matter at subatomic level x 10 20 m . This
Quantum Controller of Gravity is easy to build
and can be used in order to test the correlation
between gravitational mass and inertial mass
previously mentioned.

Also it was shown that, if the weight of a

particle in a side of a lamina is P = mg g ( g

perpendicular to the lamina) then the weight of the

same particle, in the other side of the lamina is

2. The Device
Consider a spherical capacitor, as shown in
Fig.1. The external radius of the inner spherical
shell is ra , and the internal radius of the outer
spherical shell is rb . Between the inner shell and
the outer shell there is a dielectric with electric
permittivity = r 0 . The inner shell works as an
inductor, in such way that, when it is charged with
an electric charge + q , and the outer shell is
connected to the ground, then the outer shell
acquires a electric charge q , which is uniformly
distributed at the external surface of the outer
shell, while the electric charge + q is uniformly
distributed at the external surface of the inner
shell (See Halliday, D. and Resnick, R., Physics,
Vol. II, Chapter 28 (Gauss law), Paragraph 28.4).

Under these conditions, the electric field

between the shells is given by the vectorial sum of

Ea and Eb ,

the electric fields

respectively
produced by the inner shell and the outer shell.
Since they have the same direction in this region,
then one can easily show that the resultant

Note that the electrostatic force, F , between
q and + q will move the negative electric
charges in the direction of the positive electric
charges. This causes a displacement, x , of the

electric field, Eb , into the outer shell (See Fig. 2

(b)). Thus, in the region with thickness x the
intensity of the electric field is not null but equal
to Eb .
The negative electric charges are
r
accelerated with an acceleration, a , in the
direction of the positive charges, in such way that
they acquire a velocity, given by v =
(drift velocity).
The drift velocity is given by [2]

The maximum size of an electron has
been estimated by several authors [3, 4, 5].
The conclusion is that the electron must have
a physical radius smaller than 10-22 m * .
Assuming that, under the action of the
r
force F (produced by a pulsed voltage
waveform, V ), the electrons would fluctuate
about their initial positions with the amplitude
of x 11020 m (See Fig.3), then we get

In this last case, the weight of the shell with

thickness x will be Px 1.1mi 0 (x ) g ; the

sign (-) shows that it becomes repulsive in respect
to Earths gravity. Besides this it is also
intensified 1.1 times in respect to its initial value.
It was shown that, if the weight of a particle

in a side of a lamina is P = mg g ( g perpendicular
to the lamina) then the weight of the same
particle, in the other side of the lamina is
r

P = m g g , where = m gl mil0 ( m gl and mil0

are respectively, the gravitational mass and the

inertial mass of the lamina) [1]. Only
when = 1 , the weight is equal in both sides
of the lamina. The lamina works as a Gravity
Controller. Since P = P = (mg )g = mg (g ) ,
we can consider that

m g = m g or that g = g
Now consider the Spherical Capacitor
previously mentioned. If the gravity below the
capacitor is g , then above the first hemispherical
shell with thickness x (See Fig.4) it will
become g , and above the second hemispherical
shell with thickness x , the gravity will be 2 g .

Note that the frequency

(See text above Eq. (3)).

f must be greater than 1Hz

Fig.4 The shell with thickness x works as a

Quantum Controller of Gravity.

Since the voltage V is correlated to the

frequency f by means of the expression
f = 1.7V (Eq. (5)), then it is necessary to put
a synchronizer before the pulse generator (See
Fig.5), in order to synchronize V with f .Thus,
when we increase the voltage, the frequency
is simultaneously increased at the same
proportion, according to Eq. (5).
