VARIATIONS IN MEASUREMENTS OF THE GRAVITATIONAL CONSTANT DUE TO ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD GRADIENTS

Measurements of the Gravitational Constant G have large variations both within individual experimental runs and also between results from different experiments. Davies (1988) extended Einstein/Cartan theory and developed linearized Bianchi Identities that proved Torsion gradients contribute to Curvature and the Gravitational Field. By applying a particle-in-field model of particle-antiparticle pair production, Davies (1988) identified Curvature with the massive charged particle/antiparticle and their intermediating electroweak forces were identified with timelike components of the Torsion tensorwith identification of Maxwell's Equation in these linearized Bianchi Identities. Thus, it is to be expected that Electric field gradients in the vicinity of Gravitational Constant measurements will affect the resultant values. It is shown that observed variations both in the same experiment and between different G experiments are explained by observed values of local Electric field gradients.
