This article (eight pages): http://uk.arxiv.org/PS_cache/physics/pdf/0502/0502106.pdf

is an interesting little suggestive piece on the connections between quantum gravity and residual electromagentic effects of electrical dipoles in electrically neutral atoms.

Noncommutative spacetime effects and gravitation
Authors: B.G.Sidharth
Comments: 8 pages, based on two papers accepted for publication in Int.J.Mod.Phys.E
Subj-class: General Physics

In recent years Quantum Superstrings and Quantum Gravity approaches have come to rely on non differenciable spacetime manifolds. These throw up a noncommutative spacetime geometry and we consider the origin of mass and a related modification of the Dirac equation in this context. This also throws some light on gravitation itself.

I think others have attempted to link gravity with electomagnetic
effects and come up blank, i have just read a little about magnetic
monopoles, apart from 2 or 3 possible results the search is still on
never the less it seems that not all avenues have been exhausted.

On the granular structure of space time AFAIK all efforts to detect
some time lag in high energy rays has failed to date, this does not
mean that ST is not granular in some way ,just that it has no effect
on EMR, i have often wondered how this is possible, how can a photon
traverse the U without loosing energy to ST, i can only suggest that
ST is frictionless to EMR, but the possibility exists for the photon to
effect ST.

Thank you for sharing this article on the connections between gravity and electric dipoles. It is indeed intriguing to explore the potential connections between these two seemingly disparate concepts.

The article delves into the concept of noncommutative spacetime, which has gained popularity in the field of quantum gravity. This approach challenges the traditional notion of a smooth and continuous spacetime, and instead suggests a spacetime that is non-differentiable and noncommutative.

One interesting aspect discussed in the article is the origin of mass in this noncommutative spacetime. It is proposed that the presence of electric dipoles in electrically neutral atoms may play a role in the emergence of mass. This is a thought-provoking idea, as it connects the fundamental concept of mass to the properties of atoms.

Furthermore, the article also suggests a modification of the Dirac equation in this noncommutative spacetime. This could potentially have implications for our understanding of the fundamental particles and their interactions.

Overall, the connection between gravity and electric dipoles presented in this article is a fascinating concept that warrants further exploration and investigation. It highlights the intricate and interconnected nature of the fundamental forces and properties of the universe. Thank you for sharing this thought-provoking piece.
