Reflecting gravity waves

There has been working going on in this area for some time, but it's starting to actually show verifiable laboratory results. These discoveries will be as important for the next 150 years as the discovery of the electromagnetic effects 150 years ago.

Something sounds fishy about the article. How do they determine that the cooper pairs flow in a non geodesic motion if they cannot ever determine the position or trajectory of them in the first place?

When they state "42 orders of magnitude" they give no clue on what metric they are using. Are they measuring the brute "amount" of cooper pairs that followed non-geodesic motions? Are they measuring the changing electric fields?

That's one of the properties of being non-local AFAIK.

I believe they would be measuring the electric fields yes.
