Abstract:

A review of the literature on studies of bodies with negative mass is presented. The principle of equivalence of inert and gravitational masses is discussed. It is shown that under the condition of this principle, the existence of particles of matter with negative mass is possible. Evidence of the existence of negative masses is presented. The issues of birth, essence and synthesis of negative masses are considered. Under the assumption that the usual Newton laws for such particles, the mechanics of the interaction of negative masses (negatons) between themselves and positive masses (positons), their temperature, are described.

Keywords: gravitational mass., inertial mass, equivalence principle, positons, negatons, negative mass
