Gravity and the Quantum Vacuum Inertia Hypothesis. I. Formalized Groundwork for Extension to Gravity
Alfonso Rueda, Bernard Haisch, Roh Tung
It has been shown [1,2] that the electromagnetic quantum vacuum makes a contribution to the inertial mass, , in the sense that at least part of the inertial force of oppositio…

Geometrodynamics, Inertia and the Quantum Vacuum
Bernard Haisch, Alfonso Rueda
Why does {\bf F} equal m{\bf a} in Newton's equation of motion? How does a gravitational field produce a force? Why are inertial mass and gravitational mass the same? It appears th…

The Case for Inertia as a Vacuum Effect: A Reply to Woodward and Mahood
York Dobyns, Alfonso Rueda, Bernard Haisch
The possibility of an extrinsic origin for inertial reaction forces has recently seen increased attention in the physical literature. Among theories of extrinsic inertia, the two c…
