Let's start at the beginning.
Quote from: Jolly2 on 23/01/2021 20:24:05
I was wondering if gravity couldn't be an emergent property of the strong and weak necular forces?
For gravity to be an emergent property of the strong and weak nuclear forces it would have to be a property of them.

No it wouldn't,  as an emergent property,  it would emerge after they have influenced atoms to join together and be related to the atomic masses they help create.

If it had emerged as a property then it would be a property.
It isn't, because it didn't.

What am I a physics major?

If I wanted a noble prize I might be bothered.

I posted a guess, rather then asking me to prove it. I believe the point of a discussion forum was to discuss the implications- The first step in the designing an experiment. 

So rather then go round in circles can you not use your knowledge
to rather say "if that was true then A would be true or if it was true then B would be"?

Subatomic particles have mass and energy without having to combine into atoms.

Doesnt matter, as

Def:-Emergent properties are properties that manifest themselves as the result of various system components working together, not as a property of any individual component.


Sub atomic particles may have mass,  gluons hold atoms together and the weak force allows decay and for elements to change, the guess is that they together cause gravity to emerge.

That's what I've been doing. If the nuclear forces had anything to do with mass (and therefore gravity), then the electron, muon and tau would all have the same mass. They don't.

A very unhelpful response.

But you haven't given us any reason to believe that your guess is right.

Considering gluons with the strong force hold atoms together thus allowing their combimed mass to increase I fail to see how you claim the strong force has nothing to do with mass.

How does it follow that if the strong force increases mass(allows mass to increase through combinations), that the three Leptons would have the same mass?
The strong force doesnt give energy,  it allows the energy that is present to concentrate.

Because they all interact with the strong force in an identical manner.

Meaning mass isn't an element in what causes the strong force to act. It's action gathers different elements of mass.

Gluons are massless.

above all, gluons, which transmit the force that binds the quarks together. Gluons are massless and evanescent, but they carry most of the proton's energy.

That is probably what allows they to serve the function they do. They carry energy but dont have any  they combine masses but don't have any.

What evidence is there that mass is made up of anything more fundamental?

Quote from: Jolly2 on 25/01/2021 23:32:04
Gluons are massless.

Their invariant mass is zero, but they still have a relativistic mass.

That also doesn't give a citation for your claim that gluons allow "energy to concentrate." Gluons have nothing to do with the electron's energy, for example.

Somehow you were, your claim was that leptons with different masses, are influenced the same way under the strong force. Ergo there mass isnt important, regardless of the mass they have they act the same way ergo mass isnt an issue with regards to the strong force.

That the mass of a particle the strong force acts upon isnt important, doesnt mean once the strong force has acted the mass isnt.

It means the strong force acts regardless of mass, but the result is more mass.

Hardly I would be suggesting that gravity is being produced by the atom, electron and nucleus combined.

I might start defending Mr Feynmans idea that there is only one electron in the entire universe

And this is the claim I want you to support.

Gluons connect quarks together,  after they are connected into a new atomic form they have more mass altogether then when they where separate.  They act as a mass body not a mass individually hence more mass in a more concentrated area.

Think I'll call it 'unified mass density' leading to emergent gravity.

What happens when they break atoms in the Hadron collider? Do they have more mass or less once broke into their constituent parts?

Ok the thing that holds atoms together has nothing to do with mass
Good to see that you accept it.
Do you understand that it proves your hypothesis to be wrong?

Your consistent inability to actually add to the discussion is sad.

No, that which holds atoms together allows their mass to increase. Especially when those atoms combine with others.

The analogy is the drops of water becoming a waterfall.

The drops are the strong force the waterfall is gravity

Correct. Gravity is so weak that it is practically non-existent on the quantum scale.

tell me another one.

Another what?

Quote from: Jolly2 on 26/01/2021 02:33:19
What happens when they break atoms in the Hadron collider? Do they have more mass or less once broke into their constituent parts?

The total mass is conserved.

Quote from: Jolly2 on 26/01/2021 02:33:19
Well then at best gluons travel at near light speed.

They travel at exactly light speed. That's true for any particle that has an invariant mass of zero (by the way, "invariant mass" is not necessarily the same as a particle's actual mass. It instead represents the lower limit on a particle's mass. A particle with an invariant mass of zero, like a photon, can have an arbitrarily low mass-energy based on its frequency. There seems to be no lower finite limit to that energy, but it technically can never actually be zero. Otherwise, you wouldn't have a particle anymore).

If you want, yes.

I'm still waiting for evidence for this. That sounds like it would violate the law of conservation of mass.

Correct. Gravity is so weak that it is practically non-existent on the quantum scale.

That has nothing to do with the point I made. The strong and weak forces allow atoms to combine if too many do their combined mass density can cause a black hole to form.

Yes but density is lost as the masses become independent

Gluons appear to be a different type of particle

Conservation of mass isnt related I am speaking of density. Of atoms combining increasing the over all mass once combined. A brick have less mass then a wall.

The wall producing gravity as a emergent function of the strong and weak force allowing the wall to hold together.

Actually, the weak force has nothing to do with it.

Which is because of their mass, not because of the nuclear forces.

Quote from: Jolly2 on 27/01/2021 11:45:21

So?

Quote from: Jolly2 on 27/01/2021 11:45:21

You never posted a citation about gluons traveling at less than light speed. That was quarks.

Quote from: Jolly2 on 27/01/2021 11:45:21

They are "luxons", which means any particle that travels at the speed of light.

It's not my theory. It's special relativity.

Given that each individual "brick" has gravity, then the strong and weak forces have no role in the fact that gravity exists.
