Abstract

We performed several measurements of anomalous forces on a dielectric rotor under electrostatic operation conditions. The device operated under constant and intense angular velocity for each high voltage applied. The measurements were made in a similar way to an analogue magnetic gyroscope, by considering clockwise and counterclockwise rotations. We found that there is significant weight reduction on the device in the clockwise case, one order of magnitude higher than in the magnetic case. In addition, we detected a similar asymmetry in the observation of the effect, that is, there are smaller results for the anomalous forces in counterclockwise rotation for higher values of the voltage applied on the device. We also propose a theoretical model to explain the quantitative effect based on average values of macroscopic observables of the device rotation and concluded that it is consistent with the experimental findings.
