Quantized Weight-Change Stages

"Quantized weight-change stages" is the reported behaviour, in N. A. Kozyrev's September 1967 paper, in which the weight changes measured on his balances appeared in jump-like discrete steps rather than continuously.

Reported stages

• The stages are given as ½ΔQ, ΔQ, 2ΔQ and 3ΔQ, appearing with vibration frequency.
• The half-quantum (½ΔQ) is explicitly called unexplained by Kozyrev.
• The discrete stable-deflection states recur in the torsion-balance tests at the one-fourth-effect level (3°5′). See Asymmetric Torsion Balance.

Assessment

The source reports these stages as observations from Kozyrev's own apparatus. The paper also notes that the weights behaved "very erratically" and that the zero point often shifted, which complicates any quantization claim. No independent replication is reported. See Kozyrev Claims vs. Evidence.
