Is there a relationship between temperature and gravity

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the relationship between temperature and gravity during the early moments of the Universe, specifically questioning whether gravity existed before the first 10^-34 seconds after the Big Bang when temperatures reached extreme levels. Participants acknowledge that gravity evolved at this point, suggesting a potential link between temperature and gravity, albeit likely negligible at such high temperatures. The complexity of grand unified theories is noted, indicating that any relationship may vary based on the specific context being examined. Suggestions are made to explore this topic further in more specialized forums. The conversation highlights the ongoing curiosity about fundamental forces in cosmology.

I know that it wasn't until the first 10-34 seconds after the birth of the Universe, that gravity " evolved" and at the time the temperature was 100 million trillion trillion degrees. Does that mean that within the first moments even before this time, gravity did not exist? And if so, then does that mean that there is a relationship between temperature and gravity?

I mean I'm sure it's pretty negligible, especially with those temperatures. But the question still remains...

how do you know that?

well... grand unified theories tend to be a little complicated... sure there might be some relation between temperature and gravity... but i guess it depends on what kind of relation exactly you are looking for.

It would be better to ask this question in the "beyond the standard model" forum. Cheers.
 
I was watching a Khan Academy video on entropy called: Reconciling thermodynamic and state definitions of entropy. So in the video it says: Let's say I have a container. And in that container, I have gas particles and they're bouncing around like gas particles tend to do, creating some pressure on the container of a certain volume. And let's say I have n particles. Now, each of these particles could be in x different states. Now, if each of them can be in x different states, how many total...
Thread 'Why work is PdV and not (P+dP)dV in an isothermal process?'
Let's say we have a cylinder of volume V1 with a frictionless movable piston and some gas trapped inside with pressure P1 and temperature T1. On top of the piston lay some small pebbles that add weight and essentially create the pressure P1. Also the system is inside a reservoir of water that keeps its temperature constant at T1. The system is in equilibrium at V1, P1, T1. Now let's say i put another very small pebble on top of the piston (0,00001kg) and after some seconds the system...
