Martin Tajmar

Martin Tajmar is a physicist and professor for Space Systems at the Dresden University of Technology.

[4] In a 2003 paper,[5] Tajmar proposed that a gravitational effect may explain the long-standing discrepancy between the mass of Cooper pairs first measured in superconductors by Janet Tate et al. and the theoretically-expected value.

[citation needed] In 2006 Tajmar and several coworkers announced their claim to have measured a gravitomagnetic version of the frame-dragging effect caused by a superconductor with an accelerating or decelerating spin.

"[6] In June 2008, Tajmar reported a new phenomenon suggesting that signals could be induced in a gyroscope resulting from a new property of rotating low-temperature helium.

[7] His further research suggests the anomaly may indeed be coming from liquid helium in the setup.
