Theoretical Sci-fi Physics.

From vague memories of reading the official explanation decades ago, it's something to do with gravitons (quanta of gravity) though I'm not sure how they're generated or attenuate. This may be from the DGP Q&S endorsed by GDW and thus canon at the time.

There was a drop-off though, so the field attenuated more rapidly beyond a few metres from the plates. Perhaps it was an interference pattern of the same kind of 'vacuum energy' manipulation that M-drives use.
