Another possible interplay between gravitation and cosmology

I describe here some features of a non-geometrical approach to quantum gravity which leads to another picture of ties of gravitation and cosmology. The role of taking into account the effect of time dilation of the standard cosmological model is considered. It is shown that the correction for no time dilation leads to a good accordance of Supernovae 1a data and predictions of the considered model. The distributions of stretch factor values of Supernovae 1a for the cases of time dilation and no time dilation are discussed.

Lorentz symmetry violation due to interactions of photons with the graviton background

The average time delay of photons due to multiple interactions with gravitons of the background is computed in a frame of the model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author. The two variants of evaluation of the lifetime of a virtual photon are considered: 1$)$ on a basis of the uncertainties relation (it is a common place in physics of particles) and 2$)$ using a conjecture about constancy of the proper lifetime of a virtual photon. It is shown that in the first case Lorentz violation is negligible: the ratio of the average time delay of photons to their propagation time is equal approximately to $10^{-28}$; in the second one (with a new free parameter of the model), the time-lag is proportional to the difference $\sqrt{E_{01}}-\sqrt{E_{02}}$, where $E_{01}, E_{02}$ are initial energies of photons, and more energetic photons should arrive later, also as in the first case. The effect of graviton pairing is taken into account, too.

A non-geometrical approach to quantum gravity

Some results of author's work in a non-geometrical approach to quantum gravity are reviewed here, among them: a quantum mechanism of classical gravity giving a possibility to compute the Newton constant; asymptotic freedom at short distances; interaction of photons with the graviton background leading to the important cosmological consequences; the time delay of photons due to interactions with gravitons; deceleration of massive bodies in the graviton background which may be connected with the Pioneer anomaly and with the problem of dark matter.

Low-energy quantum gravity: new challenges for an experiment and observation

Some new challenges for an experiment and observation, which are consequences of the model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author, are considered here. In particular, the property of asymptotic freedom of this model leads to the unexpected consequence: if a black hole arises due to a collapse of a matter with some characteristic mass of particles, its full mass should be restricted from the bottom. For usual baryonic matter, this limit of mass is of the order $10^{7}M_{\odot}$.

How to verify the redshift mechanism of low-energy quantum gravity

In the model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author, the redshift mechanism is quantum and local, and it is not connected with any expansion of the Universe. A few possibilities to verify its predictions are considered here: the specialized ground-based laser experiment; a deceleration of massive bodies and the Pioneer anomaly; a non-universal character of the Hubble diagram for soft and hard radiations; galaxy/quasar number counts.

A non-universal transition to asymptotic freedom in low-energy quantum gravity

The model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author has the property of asymptotic freedom at very short distances. The character of transition to asymptotic freedom is studied here. It is shown that this transition is not universal, but the one obeys the scaling rule: the range of this transition in units of $r/E^{1/2}$, where $r$ is a distance between particles and $E$ is an energy of the screening particle, is the same for any micro-particle. This range for a proton is between $10^{-11} - 10^{-13}$ meter, while for an electron it is approximately between $10^{-13} - 10^{-15}$ meter.

Asymptotic freedom in low-energy quantum gravity

It is suggested in the model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author, that the background of super-strong interacting gravitons exists. It is shown here that micro-particles at very small distances should be almost free if the gravitational attraction is caused by a pressure of these gravitons.

A few remarks about the Pioneer anomaly

Some features of the Pioneer anomaly are discussed in context of author's explanation of this effect as a deceleration of the probes in the graviton background. It is noted that if the model is true then the best parameter of the anomalous acceleration should be not the distance to the Sun but a cosine of the angle between a velocity of the probe and its radius-vector.

Hubble diagrams of soft and hard radiation sources in the graviton background: to an apparent contradiction between supernova 1a and gamma-ray burst observations

In the sea of super-strong interacting gravitons, non-forehead collisions with gravitons deflect photons, and this deflection may differ for soft and hard radiations. As a result, the Hubble diagram would not be a universal function and it will have a different view for such sources as supernovae in visible light and gamma-ray bursts. Observations of these two kinds are compared here with the limit cases of the Hubble diagram.

The graviton background: a new way to quantum gravity

Graviton pairing and destruction of these pairs under collisions with bodies may lead to the Newtonian attraction. It opens us a new way to a very-low-energy quantum gravity model. In the model by the author, cosmological redshifts are caused by interactions of photons with gravitons of the background. Non-forehead collisions with gravitons lead to an additional relaxation of any photonic flux. Total galaxy number counts/redshift and galaxy number counts/magnitude relations are computed and found to be in a good agreement with galaxy observations.

Galaxy number counts in a presence of the graviton background

In the model of low-energy quantum gravity by the author, cosmological redshifts are caused by interactions of photons with gravitons. Non-forehead collisions with gravitons will lead to an additional relaxation of any photonic flux. Using only the luminosity distance and a geometrical one as functions of a redshift in this model, theoretical predictions for galaxy number counts are considered here. The Schechter luminosity function with $α=-2.43$ is used. The considered model provides a good fit to galaxy observations by Yasuda et al. (AJ, 122 (2001) 1104) if the same K-corrections are added. It is shown that observations of $N(z)$ for different magnitudes $m$ are a lot more informative than the ones of $N(m).$

Screening the graviton background, graviton pairing, and Newtonian gravity

It is shown that screening the background of super-strong interacting gravitons creates for any pair of bodies as an attraction force as well an repulsion force due to pressure of gravitons. For single gravitons, these forces are approximately balanced, but each of them is much bigger than a force of Newtonian attraction. If single gravitons are pairing, a body attraction force due to pressure of such graviton pairs is twice exceeding a corresponding repulsion force under the condition that graviton pairs are destructed by collisions with a body. If the considered quantum mechanism of classical gravity is realized in the nature, then an existence of black holes contradicts to Einstein's equivalence principle. In such the model, Newton's constant is proportional to $H^{2}/T^{4},$ where $H$ is the Hubble constant, $T$ is an equivalent temperature of the graviton background. The estimate of the Hubble constant is obtained $H=2.14 \cdot 10^{-18} s^{-1}$ (or $66.875 km \cdot s^{-1} \cdot Mpc^{-1}$).

Gravitons as super-strong interacting particles, and low-energy quantum gravity

It is shown by the author that if gravitons are super-strong interacting particles and the low-temperature graviton background exists, the basic cosmological conjecture about the Dopplerian nature of redshifts may be false. In this case, a full magnitude of cosmological redshift would be caused by interactions of photons with gravitons. A new dimensional constant which characterizes one act of interaction is introduced and estimated. Non-forehead collisions with gravitons will lead to a very specific additional relaxation of any photonic flux. It gives a possibility of another interpretation of supernovae 1a data - without any kinematics. Of course, all of these facts may implicate a necessity to change the standard cosmological paradigm. Some features of a new paradigm are discussed here, too. A quantum mechanism of classical gravity based on an existence of this sea of gravitons is described for the Newtonian limit. This mechanism needs graviton pairing and "an atomic structure" of matter for working it, and leads to the time asymmetry. If the considered quantum mechanism of classical gravity is realized in the nature, than an existence of black holes contradicts to Einstein's equivalence principle. It is shown that in this approach the two fundamental constants - Hubble's and Newton's ones - should be connected between themselves. The theoretical value of the Hubble constant is computed. In this approach, every massive body would be decelerated due to collisions with gravitons that may be connected with the Pioneer 10 anomaly. It is shown that the predicted and observed values of deceleration are in good agreement. Some unsolved problems are discussed, so as possibilities to verify some conjectures in laser-based experiments.

Low-energy quantum gravity leads to another picture of the universe

If gravitons are super-strong interacting particles and the low-temperature graviton background exists, the basic cosmological conjecture about the Dopplerian nature of redshifts may be false: a full magnitude of cosmological redshift would be caused by interactions of photons with gravitons. Non-forehead collisions with gravitons will lead to a very specific additional relaxation of any photonic flux that gives a possibility of another interpretation of supernovae 1a data - without any kinematics. These facts may implicate a necessity to change the standard cosmological paradigm. Some features of a new paradigm are discussed. In a frame of this model, every observer has two different cosmological horizons. One of them is defined by maximum existing temperatures of remote sources - by big enough distances, all of them will be masked with the CMB radiation. Another, and much smaller, one depends on their maximum luminosity - the luminosity distance increases with a redshift much quickly than the geometrical one. If the considered quantum mechanism of classical gravity is realized in the nature, then an existence of black holes contradicts to the equivalence principle. In this approach, the two fundamental constants - Hubble's and Newton's ones - should be connected between themselves. The theoretical value of the Hubble constant is computed. Also, every massive body would be decelerated due to collisions with gravitons that may be connected with the Pioneer 10 anomaly.

Superspace without torsion and the composite fundamental fermions

(N=2)-superspace without torsion is described, which is equivalent to an 8-space with a discrete internal subspace. A number and a character of ties determine now an internal symmetry group, while in the supersymmetrical models this one is determined by an extension degree N. Such a model can be constructed for no less than 4 generations of the two-component fundamental fermions. Analogues of the Higgs fields appear in the model naturally after transition to the Grassmannian extra coordinates. The connection between discrete and continues internal symmetries of the model is discussed. If one considers gravity as embedding the curved 4-space into a 12-dimensional flat space, a U(1)-symmetry appears transformations of which should be connected with the ones of SU(2)-group. If super-strong interacting gravitons are constituents of the composite fermions, all this may open us another way to unify the known interactions. The main feature of this new approach may be the external see of gravitons underlying an internal structure of particles; the lack of any divergencies would be due the Planckian spectrum of external gravitons.

Non-dopplerian cosmological redshift parameters in a model of graviton-dusty universe

Possible effects are considered which would be caused by a hypothetical superstrong interaction of photons or massive bodies with single gravitons of the graviton background. If full cosmological redshift magnitudes are caused by the interaction, then the luminosity distance in a flat non-expanding universe as a function of redshift is very similar to the specific function which fits supernova cosmology data by Riess et al. From another side, in this case every massive body, slowly moving relatively to the background, would experience a constant acceleration, proportional to the Hubble constant, of the same order as a small additional acceleration of Pioneer 10, 11.
