Gravitational effects in a superconducting film struck by a laser pulse
Giovanni A. Ummarino, Antonio Gallerati
We study the local interaction of the gravitational field with a superfluid condensate. To this end, we exploit the Ginzburg-Landau formalism with generalized Maxwell fields. The a…
Interaction between macroscopic quantum systems and gravity
Antonio Gallerati, Giovanni Modanese, Giovanni Ummarino
We review experiments and theoretical models about the possible mutual interplay between the gravitational field and materials in the superconducting state or other macroscopic qua…
Superconductors and gravity
Antonio Gallerati, Giovanni Ummarino
We review and discuss some recent developments on the unconventional interaction between superconducting systems and the local gravitational field. While it is known that gravitati…
Superconductor in static gravitational, electric and magnetic fields with vortex lattice
Giovanni Ummarino, Antonio Gallerati
We estimate the conjectured interaction between the Earth gravitational field and a superconductor immersed in external, static electric and magnetic field. The latter is close to…
Possible alterations of local gravitational field inside a superconductor
G. A. Ummarino, A. Gallerati
We calculate the possible interaction between a superconductor and the static Earth's gravitational fields, making use of the gravito-Maxwell formalism combined with the time-depen…
Interaction between superconductors and weak gravitational field
Antonio Gallerati
We consider the interaction between the Earth's gravitational field and a superconductor in the fluctuation regime. Exploiting the weak field expansion formalism and using time dep…
Josephson AC effect induced by weak gravitational field
Giovanni Alberto Ummarino, Antonio Gallerati
In this paper we examine the possibility of a Josephson AC effect between two superconductors induced by the Earth's gravitational field, making use of the gravito-Maxwell formalis…
Exploiting weak field gravity-Maxwell symmetry in superconductive fluctuations regime
Giovanni Alberto Ummarino, Antonio Gallerati
We study the behaviour of a superconductor in a weak static gravitational field for temperatures slightly greater than its transition temperature (fluctuation regime). Making use o…
Superconductor in a weak static gravitational field
Giovanni Alberto Ummarino, Antonio Gallerati
We provide the detailed calculation of a general form for Maxwell and London equations that takes into account gravitational corrections in linear approximation. We determine the p…
