Is it possible that gravitons also orbit nucleons like electrons do? I know this is speculative grounds, but are there any scientific principles that come to mind that could fallsify this question?
I have read that the gravitons are closed strings with extremely little vibration, meaning that they won't connect to any other particles, and are free to "float" around in mass.

Fusilli_Jerry89 said:I have readthat they are open strings and are free to move between dimensions. That is why gravity is such a weak force.
There is currently no evidence to suggest that gravitons, which are hypothetical particles responsible for the force of gravity, orbit nucleons (protons and neutrons) in the same way that electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom. Gravitons are thought to be massless and do not interact with other particles in the same way that electrons do.
There is ongoing research and experiments being conducted to better understand the nature of gravitons and their interactions with other particles. However, there is currently no specific focus on gravitons orbiting nucleons as this concept is not supported by current theories and evidence.
No, the strong nuclear force, which holds the nucleus of an atom together, is a separate fundamental force from gravity. The strong nuclear force is carried by particles called gluons and is much stronger than the force of gravity.
Gravitons, if they exist, are thought to interact with all particles that have mass, including nucleons. However, the strength of this interaction is extremely weak compared to other fundamental forces, making it difficult to detect and study.
The current understanding is that gravitons do not orbit nucleons, but rather are constantly being exchanged between all particles with mass, including nucleons. This exchange of gravitons creates the force of gravity, which is responsible for the attraction between objects with mass.
