Interesting argument, it will take some thinking upon. But unless we exist in a simulation, or God is real; ‘infinity’, you keep using that word... I do not think that word means what you think it means.

Yeah, sorry about that, I'm not exactly sure what I'm asking either?! I guess I was wondering how gravity might be defined, simplistically speaking, without the 1/r^2 term. Basically tidal gravity. I think I can maybe understand how the EM fields work out in QED, but I can't yet wrap my brain...

To bring up an older thread which I don't have too much time (or experience, education or knowledge) to think about... I guess now I'm wondering how a gravitational field, unlike the Higgs, might be defined without a gradient (spacetime) dependent field?

I'm feeling quite uneducated and humble in this forum; much thanks hutchphd for the reference, but that seems kinda... numerological? Can't yet wrap my brain around how 1/m^2 in regards to a gravity (position) gradient is also (equally?) expressed as 1/s^2, but will read and think about it...

The change in gravity/acceleration in regards to a change in distance. m/s^2, per m.

Holy smokes, humbly and thanks for the responses. With our understanding of G, I can't imagine mass being defined by gravity. I was working with a company probably a decade ago who proposed a gravity (not mass) standard to BIPM (free fall gravimeter with laser length and atomic clock, both...

Emergent relativity?

I'm wondering if any of the physics Jedi out there might know of any credible papers that suggest big G and/or the cosmological (dark energy) aren't constant through time?

Anybody want a peanut? You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means. Quit rhyming, I mean it. I could have killed you. I believe you. True Love. You killed my father, prepare to die.

A mathematician cop pulls over a metaphorically speeding and swerving physicist, but thankfully he let's her go with a warning. Please don't drink and derive.

Not really sure what you're asking here? It seems like your calculations/code are getting tripped up/out with singularities?

Here’s a link to the patent for the most accurate pendulum yet created; quite a feat of engineering. http://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2015/0234087.html

Can negative momentum be expressed as Hawking radiation?

Just to be mischievous... a photon passing through an event horizon will have a negative momentum... opposite it's velocity? But I guess at that point, what is velocity?

Try going at it using the conservation of momentum/inertia..
