Question

could the interaction of dark matter vs matter be evidence of the particle carrying the force of gravity?

Answer 1

Maybe

Answer 2

what proof do we have that gravity is a force rather than then effect?

Answer 3

It is a force which is the result/effect of mass. I don't know about this but it seems that similar to magnets, atoms have small gravitational charges. Perhaps they come from even smaller than quarks. Such as you get a large magnet, the magnetism increases, the more mass you have, the larger the gravitational force. Fg = G(m1m2)/r^2 <- equation for finding the attraction of gravity between two objects

Answer 4

is there any link between dark matter and antimatter?

Answer 5

Well, the theory is that they were both created during the big bang but however, there should've been an annihilation of real matter with anti matter, the extra matter had to come from somewhere. <- this is my theory

Answer 6

could M or Brane theory be relevant here? Maybe a Brane of ALPHA particles vs a Brane of Any other Like particles

Answer 7

where do you suppose this extra matter come from according to your theory?

Answer 8

Well, I'm not an advanced scientist and I don't really specialize in this field XD

Answer 9

^came

Answer 10

now that the higgs boson/ higgs field has been confirmed how do these relate to dark matter and then if dark matter has an affect on gravity what is the nature of the relationship between these two things-- that being dark matter to the higgs boson

Answer 11

We don't know. All we know at this point is that Dark Matter interacts with other matter and EM radiation gravitationally, but doesn't emit or absorb EM radiation. Since it interacts gravitationally like matter, it's entirely possible that it does interact with the Higgs Field. In fact if Dark Matter is made up of WIMPs (weakly interacting massive particles) then it more than likely interacts with the Higgs field. There are other theories of Dark Matter, however, in which there would be no interaction with the Higgs field. Right now, WIMPS are the leading candidate for the Dark Matter crown. Nevertheless, Dark Matter does interact gravitationally......or at least appears to.

Answer 12

dark matter vs. matter colide because of gravity.without gravity nothing can collide with each other.if there were no gravity..such type of no -gravity questions shouldnt even exist..like if there were no gravity and in that situation a ball thrown up in the sky would never come back..how can ball exist without gravity?like its not possible to create any medium where it applies only in case of the ball and the observer that for them in that medium gravity does not exist..if there were no gravity nothing in the universe would exist.everything in the universe is called matter.anti mater is just imaginary.universe exists bacause of the theory of everything..inter-connection of everything..matter is just a phase of existence. :3

Answer 13

No, anti-matter does exist. In fact, they've collected record amounts of it at the Large Hadron Collider. Moreover, things don't exist because of gravity. There are a host of reasons things exist. Atomic nuclei are held together because of the strong internuclear force, not because of gravity. Electrons are confined to orbital about the nucleus because of electromagnetic forces.

Answer 14

PSI- do you think we could take advantage of "black holes" to better understand & observe dark matter is there any research being done on how these might interact with one another?

Answer 15

gravity is the originator of all the forces..just the changed form.how we name it,force is called gravity.the law of conservation of energy.energy is a form of gravity too.everything transforms from one form to another..we do not see it actually.

Answer 16

Well, black holes and dark matter would interact gravitationally. The problem with observing a black hole interacting with dark matter would be not being able to see the dark matter. The dark matter would have little influence on the black hole gravitationally, but if a black hole consumed dark matter, it's possible we could see new behavior such as the emission of atypical radiation from the dark matter as it orbited close to the black hole.

Answer 17

every equation is connected with each other in some way..just continue to divide it in its larger form.atomic nucleus are connected in atoms within a molecule with inter-external nuclear force.nothing is continuous..not even light.its the effect of the surrounding forces.

Answer 18

@Angela9292, gravity is not the originator of the basic forces. It is only one of the basic forces. Further, the theorized particle which mediates gravitational interaction--the graviton is completely different than the particles which mediate the other forces: the photon mediates the electromagnetic force; gluons mediate the strong force; the W+ and W- particles mediate the weak force. They are all distinctly different.

Answer 19

we only assume and calculate.Einstein never did believe in black holes..neither do i..

Answer 20

Unfortunately, science has nothing to do with belief. If you want to better understand science then you'll need to understand the scientific method and how it has guided the development of theory and how it provides science with a self correcting mechanism.

Unfortunately, the ideas that you've listed so far about the fundamental forces aren't supported by current theories or any evidence.

Answer 21

We do not assume. We observe. We then formulate an hypothesis that explains the observation. We test that hypothesis via experimentation (and/or via modeling now), and then we re-evaluate, modify, or discard or hypothesis depending on the results of the testing. if an hypothesis survives enough testing that it gains scientific consensus, it becomes a theory.

It is not simply a process of assumption and calculation.

Answer 22

all forces are same..just changed form of a force what we call gravity.how can you exist without gravity and make ideas about strong weak nuclear force etc etc?all forces are forces.just is applicable for what modern humans see.the way they explain everything happening around.i understand the most correct mechanism..search everything..not just a few well known theory.

Answer 23

Repeating yourself without offering any proof is not science. You've yet to offer any evidence of your claims. The fact is that such evidence doesn't exist.

Answer 24

and we dont observe in one day by one person.we increase our thoughts..we assume based on what we read.based on what we experiment with others..share each others thoughts..and yes by experimenting and readimg more.the updates.

Answer 25

Actually, the way we gain scientific knowledge is by the exact process I gave earlier:

"We observe. We then formulate an hypothesis that explains the observation. We test that hypothesis via experimentation (and/or via modeling now), and then we re-evaluate, modify, or discard or hypothesis depending on the results of the testing."

Answer 26

my every word indicates science..and i say everything correct.great then::Our thoughts matches?is it even possible? :/

Answer 27

@PsiSquared if dark matter does interact with gravity a black hole might be our best bet it would be hard to observe but with some crafty observations we could possibly confirm it does really interact with at least gravity even if it was just watching how dark matter affected "regular matter" on it's way into the the void.

Answer 28

Okay bye.. :0 :)

Answer 29

It would take some sensitive instrumentation and method to see how dark matter change the interaction of regular matter with a black hole. Close to a black hole, the gravitational gradient gets very steep such that gravitational forces become overwhelming. I think the differential effects might very well not be resolvable. A cosmologist would know a lot more than me on the topic.
