This paper (http://xxx.lanl.gov/abs/physics/9906059) appeared today on
LANL archive. It may have significance on gravity modification research.
As is known the repulsion of the volume elements of an uniformly
accelerating charge or a charge supported in an uniform gravitational
field accounts for the electromagnetic contribution to the charge's
inertial and gravitational mass, respectively.
This means that the mutual repulsion of the charge's volume elements
resists its accelerated motion. Conversely, the effect of
electromagnetic attraction of opposite charges results in a
self-sustaining accelerated motion of the charges provided that they
have been initially uniformly accelerated or supported in an uniform
gravitational field.
The significance of this effect is that it constitutes a possibility for
altering inertia and gravitation.

"On the Possibility of a Propulsion Drive Creation Through a Local
Manipulation of Spacetime Geometry" is equally interesting.
