Does anyone know what 'gravitospinnity' is?

I don't really follow that explanation.

As far as I am aware, gravitospinnity describes rotation (or a frame dragging) force due to gravity, for example with a rotating black hole. I am pretty new to this word myself, so maybe wait and see if anyone else can clarify! :)

Thank you!!!

Though I don't think spinnity is a technical term, I think it was a term coined by a student used to explain the frame dragging force :) - who then decided from now on the 'spinning action' would be called 'spinnity'

Nice :D!

I think it is an gravitational equivalent of Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism.
