Electro-gravity entanglement by Moreno Jose C.

“…We present a quantum entanglement model, with multiple discrete electrically charged wave-packets, that simulates gravitational attraction among them, where quantum states can have only two wave-packets with opposite charge polarities, with equal absolute values, while the rest remain neutral, relating those charges to gravitational masses. We present a thought experiment where neutrons are displaced by electric fields above the Schwinger limit, predicting their maximum possible corresponding displacement magnitudes and diminishments in their gravitational masses (with increments elsewhere), estimating an upper bound for the gravitational mass of each of those entangled wave packets allegedly constituting those neutrons. …”
