Applying the Ginzburg-Landau theory including frame dragging effects to the case of a rotating superconductor, we were able to express the absolute value of the gravitomagnetic field involved to explain the Cooper pair mass anomaly previously reported by Tate. Although our analysis predicts large gravitomagnetic fields originated by superconductive gyroscopes, those should not affect the measurement of the Earth gravitomagnetic field by the Gravity Probe-B satellite. However, the hypothesis might be well suited to explain a mechanical momentum exchange phenomena reported for superfluid helium. As a possible explanation for those abnormally large gravitomagnetic fields in quantum materials, the reduced speed of light (and gravity) that was found in the case of Bose-Einstein condensates is analysed.
