Can Gravity be Quantized?
Since the advent of general relativity and quantum mechanics their unification has been the ultimate goal of theoretical physics. So far, however, the different approaches aimed at creating a theory of quantum gravity [1] have been unsuccessful. It seems a possible reason for this – that gravity might not be an interaction – has never been consistently examined. What also warrants such an exami...
متن کاملGravity can be neither classical nor quantized
I argue that it is possible for a theory to be neither quantized nor classical. We should therefore give up the assumption that the fundamental theory which describes gravity at shortest distances must either be quantized, or quantization must emerge from a fundamentally classical theory. To illustrate my point I will discuss an example for a theory that is neither classical nor quantized, and ...
متن کاملNonlinear Non!Relativistic Gravity
A phenomenological theory of gravitation is proposed\ based on a pre!relativistic approach to electromagnetism[ The general relativistic\ purely geometric\ spacetime conception is criticized[ Space itself is assumed to have physical substance[ This substance\ the ether\ manifests by its permeability[ Gravitational _elds do not curve space\ but rather distort the ether\ and so a}ect its permeabi...
متن کاملNon-relativistic Matter and Quantized Radiation
This is a didactic review of spectral and dynamical properties of atoms and molecules at energies below the ionization threshold, the focus being on recent work in which the author was involved. As far as possible, the results are described using a simple model with one electron only, and with scalar bosons. The main ideas are explained but no complete proofs are given. The full-fledged standar...
متن کاملEmergent Gravity from Quantized Spacetime
We examine the picture of emergent gravity arising from a mass deformed matrix model. Due to the mass deformation, a vacuum geometry turns out to be a constant curvature spacetime such as d-dimensional sphere and (anti-)de Sitter spaces. We show that the mass deformed matrix model giving rise to the constant curvature spacetime can be derived from the d-dimensional Snyder algebra. The emergent ...
