How do Gravitons work? as compared to photons
Jan 18, 2022 · In the analogy between photons and gravitons, (real) photons make up electromagnetic waves such as light and radio waves; and (real) gravitons make up gravitational waves such as are …
Mathematically, what is a graviton? - Physics Stack Exchange
Nov 29, 2021 · What is a graviton? Similarly how a photon is a particle you get after quantizing free electromagnetism, a gluon is a particle you get after quantizing linearized Yang-Mills; you get a …
quantum gravity - What is a graviton? - Physics Stack Exchange
A graviton is a theorised particle (specifically a boson). It is said to be its own antiparticle. It has a special role in general relativity (being that the science is all about gravitation and the warping of …
If gravity is a pseudoforce in general relativity, then why is a ...
Dec 23, 2018 · 2) A graviton is necessary since we believe graviton excitations, maybe Wheeler's space-time foam in some form or alike, must dominate the description of very dense objects …
quantum gravity - What do gravitons do? - Physics Stack Exchange
May 2, 2015 · You are basically asking how forces work in quantum field theory, because the graviton is the force carrier in a QFT description of gravity. Have a read through this article by Matt Strassler. It …
Nature of gravity: gravitons, curvature of space-time or both?
The rigorous soft graviton theorem was established by Gross and Jackiw in Phys. Rev. 166 (1968) 1287. As far as I remember, they consider a graviton scattering by a spin-0 particle, but the theorem is valid …
The energy of a Graviton - Physics Stack Exchange
Jul 26, 2023 · Maybe another stupid question, but what's the energy of a graviton? Is it $\\hbar \\omega$? Does it emit gravitons when an apple falls onto the ground, like photons be emitted when …
Why you need a graviton when you have the Higgs boson?
Perhaps we still need to have a (spin 2) graviton, but if we do, even its quantum spin must be relative to the only invariant spin state, which is the zero spin state of Higgs. Otherwise, there is no mechanism …
How do gravitons and photons interact? - Physics Stack Exchange
May 5, 2020 · @frederik. There are couple points here. First: Classically, since gravitons carry no charge, they do not interact electromagnetically. But, as Dvij points out above, at the quantum level …
What is the difference between gravitons and gravitational waves?
The standard model is merely a quantum field theory fit to observed data. Since gravitons have not been observed, yet, and it's not even clear that anything resembling a graviton even exists, the folks who …
