AI Thread Summary
In the context of a hypothetical multiverse, the discussion explores whether mass from other universes can exert gravitational attraction on mass in our universe. This concept is linked to ongoing research into why gravity is significantly weaker than the other fundamental forces. One proposed theory suggests that gravity's perceived weakness may stem from its ability to interact across universes, unlike the other forces. The potential implications of such interactions could manifest as observable deflections in our universe. The topic invites further exploration of theories, such as those presented in Lisa Randall's "Warped Passages."

In the hypothetical multiverse, is it possible for mass in other universes to be attracted to mass in our universe?
 
Space news on Phys.org
That's the idea. Physicists are trying to explain why gravity is so much weaker than the other three fundamental forces (electromagnetic-, strong- and weak force). One theory is that gravity only appears to be weaker since it can move between universes, whereas the three other forces cannot.
 
I recommend reading Lisa Randall's Warped Passages: Unraveling the Mysteries of the Universe's Hidden Dimensions.

if it attracts mass in our universe, then we should see the deflection in our universe.
 

Thread 'Matter density right after the decoupling'

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recombination_(cosmology) Was a matter density right after the decoupling low enough to consider the vacuum as the actual vacuum, and not the medium through which the light propagates with the speed lower than ? I'm asking this in context of the calculation of the observable universe radius, where the time integral of the inverse of the scale factor is multiplied by the constant speed of light .

Thread 'Hubble Constant, Dark Energy and the Expanding Universe'

Why was the Hubble constant assumed to be decreasing and slowing down (decelerating) the expansion rate of the Universe, while at the same time Dark Energy is presumably accelerating the expansion? And to thicken the plot. recent news from NASA indicates that the Hubble constant is now increasing. Can you clarify this enigma? Also., if the Hubble constant eventually decreases, why is there a lower limit to its value?
