Eric, It may not explain gravity but your phenomenon seems strikingly similar (with its repulsive push picture) to the concept of cosmological constant or quintessence, which has a great deal (it is believed) to do with the expanding universe and its fate. See http://physicsweb.org/article/world/1

Hi there, Well, it is a good try, but it has been proven wrong already indeed. To see a better refutal, see Feynman's popular book 'QED'. For instance, that theory seems even better once you realize that it also acounts for the inverse-square law. But the main flaw, if I recall it, is that object

Without inventing an "i-graviton" the idea has been put forward by a late collegue of mine Dr. Istvan Vas of Hungary, in the early 1950s. He spoke about a "push" without identifying its nature - as a force, because a general pull is 'counterproductive' an difficult to explain, as Newton's concerns

Dear Russel, What I am considering is this from http://tph.tuwien.ac.at/~svozil/publ/1999-embed-jfulltext.pdf. The aspect of a quantum system that can be embedded into an atomic Boolean algebra or related classical structure. Could this partial image of a QM system be sufficient, given th

Caveat: This post will likely demonstrate my complete lack of advanced physics education. But here goes anyway. Is it possible to model gravity as space being filled with an all-directional flux of "inverse gravitons"? These would be particles which: 1. Zoom around EVERYWHERE with a uniform dis
