Another question; in Dr. Mallett's papers, he has shown that a ring laser does produce a gravitational field. So, if one constructed a machine that creates a non rotating sphere of lasers by taking a laser source and simply bouncing it off of several mirrors, would that create a...

Let's say I had built a machine that is able to slow down time (Travel to the future) by one eighth. If the object creates a non rotating sphere using lasers and it is able to accomplish this task, would the time dilation be stronger in the machine or out of the machine?

And for the electromagnetic stess-energy tensor; would I calculate it in SI units or CGS units? Also do I need to solve it as a matrix or just as an equation?

Ok. So I substitute the electromagnetic stress-energy tensor (T^μv) into the equation: [8(3.1415)G/c^4] * Tμv as Tμv, correct?

I do believe that somewhere I have read that an electromagnetic field does produce a gravitational field. So, considering the statement above, how can one calculate the strength of a gravitational field if the strength of an electromagnetic field is given?
