Can Photons Emit Gravitons in the Absence of Black Holes?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the relationship between photons, gravitons, and black holes. It addresses the misconception that photons can emit gravitons in the absence of black holes, emphasizing that black hole formation distorts time for outside observers. As a result, gravitons are perceived from the process of a body transitioning into a black hole rather than escaping it. The conversation suggests further exploration of the topic through external resources for clarification. Understanding these concepts is crucial for grasping the complexities of gravitational interactions.

They say that light cannot escape gravitational pull of black holes, and also that gravitation is due to exchange of graviton particles, how can thy photons give out thy graviton, black holes don't exist

Your comment got garbled at the end. You seem to be concerned that gravitons can't escape from black holes. However, black hole formation greatly distorts time, so that to an outsdie observer it never actually forms. As a result the gravitons the outside observer experiences are from the body becoming a black hole.
 

Thread 'Potential biosignature found in Mars rock'

Publication: Redox-driven mineral and organic associations in Jezero Crater, Mars Article: NASA Says Mars Rover Discovered Potential Biosignature Last Year Press conference The ~100 authors don't find a good way this could have formed without life, but also can't rule it out. Now that they have shared their findings with the larger community someone else might find an explanation - or maybe it was actually made by life.

Thread 'Does it make sense to build new radio telescopes?'

TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'

This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...
