The earth's aurora borealis are proportionally caused by magnetic field lines..... Would the earth's mass's intrinsic gravity actually add to these field lines?..... Could gravity potentially have a field as well?
-
To be more technically correct, the auroras are caused by the ionization and excitation of molecules in the atmosphere caused by charged particles from space. Magnetic field lines just guide those particles towards the poles. I don't think gravity has much effect on the auroras.

Gravity is stated as a weak field with (if present) magnetic fields and electric fields coexisting within. A changing electric field produces a magnetic field and vice versa.....Well, how about a changing gravitational field producing a dark matter field?....Magnetic fields pass thru a core in a solenoid and dark matter passes thru normal matter like-so;.... so perhaps dark matter is nothing than a field as well?

The magnetic equivalent to the gravitational field is called gravitomagnetism: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitoelectromagnetism
It is responsible for the phenomenon of frame-dragging: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame-dragging

So, so, so interesting!....Rotational effects are always confusing and left out......This definitely would change gravitational field lines and I guess the question now is: would it produce dark matter/a dark matter field?

Gravitomagnetism doesn't increase the mass of the system, so it wouldn't be a good explanation for dark matter (gravitomagnetism is usually a very, very weak effect anyway).
