Electrogravitic equations form the mathematical framework used to describe the interactions between electromagnetic fields and gravitational phenomena in the context of electrogravitic propulsion and related research. These equations arise from theories such as general relativity, electromagnetism, and quantum mechanics, providing insights into the underlying physics governing electrogravitic phenomena. Here are some key equations used in the study of electrogravitics:

==== Stress-Energy Tensor ====
The stress-energy tensor, denoted by <math>T^{\mu\nu}</math>, plays a central role in describing the distribution of energy and momentum in spacetime. In the context of electromagnetism and gravity, the stress-energy tensor incorporates contributions from electromagnetic fields, matter, and gravitational effects. The equations governing the stress-energy tensor include:

The field equations govern the behavior of electromagnetic and gravitational fields in spacetime. In the context of electrogravitics, these equations describe how electromagnetic fields interact with gravitational fields and spacetime curvature. The field equations include:
