Martin Tajmar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Martin Tajmar is a research scientist and project manager in the Space Propulsion [1] group at Austrian Research Center (ARC) Seibersdorf.

In 2006, Martin Tajmar and several coworkers announced their claim to have measured the gravitomagnetic London moment of Cooper pairs in a superconducting ring spinning at 6500 rpm. Despite the similarity to the apparatus used by Eugene Podkletnov, the authors carefully state in their eprint (see citation below) that their claimed result should not be confused with the claims of Podkletnov.
