The discussion centers on the relationship between gravity and mass, particularly in the context of pre-Big Bang theories. Participants assert that gravity can exist independently of mass, as it is influenced by factors such as radiation and the Cosmological Constant. The question of whether gravity or mass came first is deemed ambiguous and poorly defined, leading to the closure of the thread for lack of valid references and clarity.
PREREQUISITESCosmologists, physicists, and students of theoretical physics interested in the foundational concepts of gravity and mass in the universe's early stages.
Gravity curves spacetime. It doesn't require that mass exists. Mass is one possible source of gravity, others are e.g. radiation or the Cosmological Constant.wolram said:I thing by my logic that gravity must have been at the pre bang stage, but then what did came first gravity or mass?
