I began reading the file and see that it appears to define some of these characteristics but not show how one can be converted into the other. When one looks at the currently existing universe it is apparent that both angular momentum as well as linear momentum have great influence upon what is observed. Both types of momentum have survived quite well over a period of many billions of years which suggests that neither can dominate over the other. I seek an example that can be readily understood in the macro world. Collisions between two pool balls or behavior that is exhibited among balls connected by strings, etc. would be far more convincing than purely theoretical guesses.
You suggest that rotational spin(if it is stored angular momentum of these particles) is converted into linear momentum by these systems but that is not obvious since it implies a reaction less drive which has not been proven. I am aware of the work going on in that arena and find it most interesting, but many questions remain regarding their viability. Many of us will be very happy if and when these drives are proven possible.

Both form a majorana spinner type quasiparticle where rotating spin is converted to linear momentum. On Sun, Aug 17, 2014 at 11:19 PM, David Roberson <dlrober...@aol.com> wrote: That is true Robin. Off center linear momentum could also be thought of as momentum at right angles to normal momentum in an orthogonal relationship. This is somewhat like cosine and sine waves which do not interact with each other. So far I have not been able to realize a method of converting angular momentum into linear momentum or vice versa.

"Off centre" linear momentum is angular momentum. Regards, Robin van Spaandonk http://rvanspaa.freehostia.com/project.html
