Nils Rognerud is a Norwegian-American electronics engineer and independent researcher known for his work on electrogravity — the idea that gravitational effects can be described as an electromagnetic phenomenon. He is the author of the 1994 paper Free Fall of Elementary Particles, in which he examines the action of gravitational forces on charged particles and the role of induced electric fields.
Education and career
According to his own biographical account, Rognerud earned a Bachelor of Science in Electronics Engineering from Gjøvik Technical College (now part of Gjøvik University College) in Norway, studying there from 1970 to 1974. He is an electronics engineer who has lived in California and Southeast Asia.
He is the founder of Rognerud Research, Inc. (earlier referred to as Rognerud Research and Development), where he has carried out research in experimental physics, electromagnetism and engineering physics.
Research
Rognerud's principal contribution to natural philosophy is his work on electrogravity. In Free Fall of Elementary Particles he reviews the observable action of gravitational forces on charged particles and discusses the induced electric fields and their physical properties. He argues that gravity can be interpreted as an electromagnetic effect, and suggests that this interpretation opens a path toward understanding artificial electro-gravity fields. His work is frequently cited in electrogravitics and antigravity reference lists, and connects to the earlier Biefeld–Brown effect investigated by Thomas Townsend Brown.
