STAIF 2007 Conference Minutes

The Space Technology Applications International Forum (STAIF) 2007 Conference was held at the Hotel Albuquerque from 12 Feb through 15 Feb 2007. I attended the sessions that were part of the 4th Symposium on New Frontiers, and co-chaired session F05 with Greg Meholic. My unofficial meeting minutes of the symposium follow and in some cases I have abbreviated the paper authorship and/or titles...

HFGW Communications Biographies

This document contains biographical information for the STAIF 2007 High-Frequency Gravitational Wave communications presenters: Dr. Robert Baker, Jr., Colby Harper, and Gary Stephenson. Together, they have outlined a proposal containing a complete scientific and business model for an HFGW Time-Standard for the Telecommunications Industry...

HFGW Time-Standard for Telecommunications

This document outlines the "The Value Estimation of an HFGW Frequency Time Standard for Telecommunications Network Optimization", a STAIF 2007 presentation outlining both a scientific and business model for the integration of emerging HFGW research into the telecommunications industry. Stephenson and Harper outline an initial application to provide an unpeturbed frequency time standard (FTS), which takes advantage of the higher penetration of HFGW carrier signals...

Notes on a Measured Gravito-Magnetic London Moment

An announcement of the first laboratory measurement of the Gravito-Magnetic London Moment was made by the European Space Agency (ESA) on March 23rd, 2006. What was actually measured? The first repeatable generation of a gravitational field in the lab. The effect was successfully reproduced over 200 times and is described in reference...

STAIF 2006 Conference Minutes

The Space Technology Applications International Forum (STAIF) 2006 Conference was held at the Albuquerque Hilton from 13 Feb through 16 Feb 2006. I attended the sessions that were part of the 3rd Symposium on New Frontiers, and chaired session F.02. My unofficial meeting minutes of the symposium follow...

Notes on Heim Quantum Theory

A recent translation of Heim's unified field theory, known as Heim’s Quantum Theory (HQT), in a 2004 AIAA paper by Droscher and Hauser has renewed interest in the work of Dr Burkhard Heim. Dr. Heim is now deceased but in the 1950's developed an exhaustive unified field theory based on the metric quantization of space-time...

The First Law of Garydynamics

The Minato Magnetic Motor is a high-efficiency motor claimed to be overunity in nature. Regardless of whether or not this particular device ultimately checks out, it is an interesting thought experiment to ask - what if it did work as advertised? How would this be possible and what impact would it have on the principles of thermodynamics?

The Experimentalist: George Hathaway

George Hathaway has been called one of the world’s premiere laboratory-scientists in the field of gravitational effects research – and rightly so. He's collaborated with the legendary John Hutchison, and replicated the famous Podkletnov disk experiment. Join us as we talk to George about the future of experimental gravity research...
