Newtonian Gravity of Antimatter and Gravitational Needs of Field Quantization: A Path to Renormalizable Gravity
摘要
By incorporating quantum mechanics into gravitational theory through the so-called spacetime geometrization procedure that consists in applying the principle of least action alongside the covariance of quantum mechanical motion equations, we present a model that describes the gravitational behavior of antimatter whose existence is fundamentally rooted in quantum mechanics. The gravity produced by an antimatter macroscopic body, described by continuous quantum mechanical field, shows that it produces attractive Newtonian potential on macroscopic scale. On a microscopic scale, where we cannot use the point-like mass approximation, the work shows that the Newtonian gravity includes an additional term that is inversely proportional to source mass and depending by the shape of the quantum mass density distributions.
