Working with precision- and microbalances is part of our daily routine. Any scientist or experimenter who has ever dealt with possible influences on highly sensitive measurement technology, especially on microbalances and high-precision mass comparators [1], knows how many factors need …

Over the last two decades, publications have appeared repeatedly in which seemingly unusual interactions between superconductors and gravitational fields have been demonstrated.

One of the leading experiments can be found in the work of E. Podkletnov et al., [1] the …

Although gravity is the weakest force in comparison to all other basic forces, it dominates our everyday life to a large extent. Because “gravity” is, besides inertia, a property of mass. And thus, gravity can normally be experienced more frequently …

Scientists from the disciplines of physics and chemistry already learn during their studies that mass in a thermodynamically closed system is a conservation quantity. The law of conservation of mass, also called law of Lomonossow-Lavoisier [1], is based among other …
