A new concept of the constitution of Nature is proposed. The constructed submicroscopic quantum mechanics is deterministic and is characterised by elementary excitations of the space net that is treated as the tessellation of balls, or…
Based on the model of a "soft" cellular space and deterministic quantum mechanics developed previously, the scattering of a free moving particle by structural units of the space -- superparticles -- is studied herein. The process of energy…
The problem of quantum gravity is treated from a radically new viewpoint based on a detailed mathematical analysis of what the constitution of physical space is, which has been carried out by Michel Bounias and the author. The approach…
We investigate the interaction of the gravitational field with a quantum particle. First, we give the proof of the equality of the inertial and the gravitational mass for the nonrelativistic quantum particle, independently of the…
The physical property of mass has two distinct aspects, gravitational mass and inertial mass. The weight of a particle depends on its gravitational mass. According to the weak form of the equivalence principle, the gravitational and…
The earlier paper, Inertial Mass, Its Mechanics - What It Is; How It Operates, developed the mechanics of inertial mass. The present paper is for the purpose of equivalently developing gravitation. The behavior of gravitation is well known,…
It is suggested that a moving canonical particle interacts with a vacuum regarded as a "soft" cellular space. The interaction results into the emergence of elementary excitations of space - inertons - surrounding the particle. It is assumed…
In this article the concept of mass is analyzed based on the special and general relativity theories and particle (quantum) physics. The mass of a particle (m=E(0)/c^2) is determined by the minimum (rest) energy to create that particle…
I will argue that the inertial mass is greater than the gravitational mass for all objects which are held together primarily by gravitational forces. Thus, for celestial objects, like planets, stars and galaxies, their inertial mass is…
This work is devoted to the discussion of an idea that gravitational interactions might be residual interactions of strong and electromagnetic interactions. Then, absence of the carriers of the gravitational interactions finds a natural…
Matter has two physical properties: Inertia and interaction. If we define the center of mass of an elementary particle in relation to its inertia, and a center of interaction in relation to its interactive properties, there are only two…
We exhibit a purely quantum mechanical carrier of the imprints of gravitation by identifying for a relativistic system a property which (i) is independent of its mass and (ii) expresses the Poincare invariance of spacetime in the absence of…
It is shown that gravitational nature of inertial mass (Mach principle) agrees with idea of interaction of gravitational and electromagnetic forces and does not contradict the laws of classical mechanics. According to the simple…
We review recent theoretical results, obtained for the equivalence between gravitational mass and energy of a composite quantum body as well as for its breakdown at macroscopic and microscopic levels. In particular, we discuss that the…
The quantum theory of gravity is considered based on the assumption that gravitational interaction occurs by means of the vector field of the Planck mass. Gravitational emission is considered as a process of the decay of proton into some…
It is shown that the Newton's law of universal gravitation can be derived from first submicroscopic principles inherent in the very nature of real space that is constituted as a tessellattice of primary topological balls. The submicroscopic…
The arguments of statistical nature for the existence of constituents of active gravitational masses are presented. The present paper proposes a basis for microscopic theory of universal gravitation. Questions like the relation of…
Covariant generalizations of well-known wave equations predict the existence of inertial-gravitational effects for a variety of quantum systems that range from Bose-Einstein condensates to particles in accelerators. Additional effects arise…
We show that in complete agreement with classical mechanics, the dynamics of any quantum mechanical wave packet in a linear gravitational potential involves the gravitational and the inertial mass only as their ratio. In contrast, the…
Previously, one of the authors has suggested [Phys. Essays, vol. 6, 554 (1993); vol. 10, 407 (1997)] a mechanism of the particle motion within the framework of a vacuum regarded as an original cellular medium, i.e. quantum aether. The…
