Abstract

An analysis is presented of the experiment by Datta, Yin and Vargas in the light of the Mbelek–Lachièze-Rey scalar-tensor theory of gravitation, showing that this theory reproduces the magnitude and sign of the measured anomalous weight increment of conducting balls immersed in an inhomogeneous electric field.
