Abstract

The properties of the gravito-magnetic interaction in non-stationary conditions are discussed. A direct deduction of the equivalent Faraday–Henry law is given. A comparison is made between gravito-magnetic and electromagnetic induction, and it is shown that there is no Meissner-like effect for superfluids in the field of massive spinning bodies. The impossibility of stationary motions in directions not along the lines of the gravito-magnetic field is found. Finally the results are discussed in relation to the behaviour of superconductors.
