KQTG - Kinetic Theory as an Approach to a Quantum Theory of Gravity

Let us begin with observed results:

The relative strength of EM and gravity differ by a factor of 10^-39 based on those forces between the proton and electron in hydrogen.

Electromagnetic gravitational waves both travel at the speed of light.

Apply six propositions:

Gravitons exist.

Gravitons share two qualities with photons: zero rest mass (under E=m_oc²), and relativistic energy (under E = pc).

Based on the relative strength of EM and gravity fields, graviton momentum-energy (pE) is 10^-39 that of an equivalent photon.

Gravitons transfer pE to mass when they scatter off mass.

Because of their lower pE, more gravitons can emerge from the vacuum energy process by a factor of 10³⁹. So, many, many more gravitons exist than photons.

Mathematically, by vectorizing gravitons with magnitude of momentum and direction of motion, gravity can be addressed as the flux of gravitons, with the gradient of the flux indicating the strength and direction of the gravitational field.

Gravitons exist in a spectrum similar to that of photons where E= `hν, where `h is expected to equal Planck’s Constant h x 10^-39.

 

This scenario envisions gravitons transferring momentum to mass so that gravity is not a force of attraction at distance but a force resulting from the transfer of momentum locally pushing the masses together. Translating this into QFT is a work in progress.
