Also begs the question of how that reaction could even take place if gravitons are totally unreactive with anything other than their source - mass. How would you accelerate a graviton. Gravitons always move at C just like light. Do we have any idea what kind of production and annihalation products will give us gravitons?
Just a guess - dark matter/energy might be the only way to create a graviton without associated mass generating it. That is..the pair production of a virtual dark photon and a graviton.
In that case what are our options?
- virgilp 9y agoAre gravitons a thing - i.e.a generally accepted concept in the scientific community? I thought their very existence was highly controversial...
- TheOtherHobbes 9y agoI've always had the naive and hand-wavey understanding that gravity is spacetime, while all the other quantum fields happen in spacetime. So there may be issues trying to use a particle theory to describe something that may be more fundamental than the other fields. But IANAP, so this could be completely wrong.
