A controlled weak-field limit for the scalar or radion path in speculative electrogravity models.
01 / Abstract
A recurring obstacle in speculative electrogravity models is the absence of a controlled weak-field limit. This paper develops such a limit for the scalar or radion path suggested by five-dimensional projection electrodynamics.
The effective four-dimensional theory contains gravity, a Maxwell field weighted by a scalar-dependent constitutive factor \(Z(s)\), and a massive scalar \(s\) interpreted as a radion, projection modulus, or readout variable.
Existing high-vacuum null results and equivalence-principle tests are translated into bounds on the coefficient product \(\alpha_E\gamma_s\). The conclusion is deliberately conservative: the scalar path is mathematically formulable and experimentally constrainable, but it is not evidence for gravity control.
02 / Model
The model separates electromagnetic sourcing from gravitational readout so future null experiments can bound the product of the two couplings.
03 / Predictions
The radion path is useful because it makes definite symmetry and range predictions even before a microscopic fifth-dimensional action is fixed.
The leading scalar profile is sourced by \(u_E\propto E^2\), so it is even under polarity reversal.
Ideal symmetric infinite capacitors should not produce thrust; finite edges and mass asymmetry matter.
The signal is controlled by gradients of electrostatic energy density, especially near edges and dielectric boundaries.
The scalar range \(\lambda_s=m_s^{-1}\) controls whether nearby or long-range energy density dominates.
