В without formation ofВ singularity inside black hole.

The model predicts inevitable big bang after big crunch.




1.В Avoid stereotyping


Newton’s theory of gravitation has only one fundamental constant – gravitational constant G. Relativistic theory of gravitation (general relativity) has 2 constants – gravitational constant G and speed of light c. Quantum theory of gravitation by definition must have all 3 fundamental constants – G, c and Planck constant h. Exactly such theory is derived here.

I derive description of gravitational interaction at quantum level, quantum solution of singularities’ problem in general relativity, maximal density of quantum matter and maximal curvature of spacetime. The model predicts inevitable big bang after big crunch.

And, inВ spite ofВ absence ofВ experimental observations, just using analogy, stereotyping with photon, aВ graviton hypothesis was put forward. Graviton is postulated as aВ hypothetical quantum ofВ gravitational field, which is postulated as Bose-condensate ofВ virtual gravitons.

However, during more than a century since derivation of general relativity, all attempts to describe gravitational field as Bose-condensate of virtual gravitons failed and had fundamental difficulties. And all such theories are non-renormalizable and don’t solve the problem [1—21], e.g. a recent review [16]. And it’ particularly noteworthy that the only renormalizable variant [17] uses fake particles. Therefore the contemporary approach is experimentally inapproppriate. And graviton was not yet found experimentally [22—28].

Therefore we should think inВ the opposite direction.

And many physicists admit necessity ofВ fundamentally new approaches toВ derivation ofВ quantum theory ofВ gravitation:

“there are fundamental structural and conceptual mismatches between general relativity and quantum theory. This raises the tantalizing possibility that radical new ideas may be needed to construct a quantum theory of gravity.” [10]
“The problem of finding and understanding the relationship between quantum theory and gravitation is an extremely difficult one…The difficulties, however, are such that we might well need radical changes in our views or completely new ideas before the problem can be solved.” [11]

InВ order toВ make the greatest scientific discoveries, great scientists ofВ the past always were induced toВ go against the generally accepted opinion, against dogmas and challenging the crowd stereotypes, e.g.:

* Copernicus, Bruno and Galileo proved heliocentrism while everyone believed inВ geocentrism. And they were right.

* Columbus sailed West inВ search ofВ India with the belief that the Earth was spherical, when the whole world considered the Earth flat. And Columbus was right,В too!

No matter who you take – Magellan, Newton, Maxwell, Planck, and other geniuses – none of the great scientists was a dogmatist, did not obey the herd instinct. Because dogmatism clings to the old ideas and prevents the creation and even understanding of a new scientific discovery that has already been created. That is why dogmatists do not make discoveries, but even do not understand the pioneers.

Similarly, to realize a scientific discovery, a breakthrough in any field, we will have to do as all geniuses did – move away from the crowd and overcome our herd instinct – after all, we are not a herd of sheep to follow the crowd, but we are thinking people, Homo Sapiens. Therefore, we should be guided by reason, and not by animal herd instinct.

ToВ form such an approach, we need critical thinking and aВ departure from the usual patterns and stereotypes inВ thinking:

“A person with an uncritical mind tends to consider the first solution to a problem that comes to mind as final…
Flexibility ofВ mind, which means freedom ofВ thought from preconceived assumptions and template solutions, the ability toВ find new solutions when the situation and conditions ofВ the problem change.
The flexibility of the mind is expressed not only in freedom from the binding influence of stencil techniques, but also in the ability to diversify attempts to solve, not to repeat those attempts, the wrongness of which has already been discovered. Many people do poorly at solving problems, mainly because they go back to the method that first came to their mind again and again in search of a solution, although each time they are convinced that this method does not lead to anything. Here a kind of “inertia” of thought is revealed: a person does not know how to move his thought from the path it once took. " [29]

So let’s use critical thinking and let’s move away from the herd instinct, template thinking and stereotyping.




2.В The cause ofВ quantization ofВ the electromagnetic field is the presence ofВ the elementary electric charge


In order to create the quantum theory of gravitation, I use a fundamentally new, innovative approach – the search for the elementary mass and the elementary energy-momentum tensor, similar to the elementary electric charge in quantum electrodynamics.

The physical cause ofВ the quantization ofВ electromagnetic field is that there is aВ minimal, elementary electric charge e, such that all other charges are multiples ofВ it:






(1) Electric charge is quantized



InВ nature there is no an electric charge that is not aВ multiple ofВ the charge ofВ the electron. All charges are multiples ofВ it. The charge ofВ any elementary particle is aВ multiple ofВ the charge ofВ an electron. The electric charge does not take either chaotic or infinitesimal values, but only strictly discrete values that are multiples ofВ the electron charge.

Therefore, a proton and an electron, having equal elementary charges (modulus), can exchange one virtual photon, so they can make an elementary act of electromagnetic interaction. An elementary electric charge can emit an elementary electromagnetic field – its quantum is a virtual photon.

Therefore elementary electric charge is included inВ the equations ofВ quantum electrodynamics.




3.В AВ new approach toВ quantum gravity


Similarly, to derive the equations of quantum gravity, I propose to try a new approach – to search for and measure the elementary, minimum values of mass, energy, and momentum. And these elementary mass, energy, and momentum can be considered as the source of the assumed graviton.

Only after measuring the elementary values ofВ mass, energy, and momentum, these values can be used inВ the equations ofВ the quantum theory ofВ gravitation.

I want to draw the reader’s attention to an important fact about quantization of energy and momentum.

InВ general relativity, the source ofВ the gravitational field is the energy-momentum tensor, aВ measure ofВ the energy and momentum density inВ aВ volume:






(2) General relativity equations



Therefore, to find the quantum of the gravitational field – the assumed graviton – we need to find the minimal, elementary values of energy and momentum.

Yes, energy and momentum are quantized:






(3)



And usually physicists believe that the fact of quantization of energy and momentum (and hence the energy-momentum tensor in general relativity) is an obvious argument in favor of the graviton and the quantum nature of the gravitational field. But any attempt to create a quantum theory of gravitation faces insurmountable difficulties – all these models are non-renormalizable.

So this is aВ dead end? What is the problem?

The fact is that the question ofВ quantization ofВ energy and momentum is actually much more complicated.

Planck’s constant, unlike electric charge, is neither an elementary energy nor an elementary momentum.

And the frequency \nu[1 - Since this editing platform has not LaTeX converter and Greek alphabet, then IВ have toВ use LaTeX notation and graphics instead ofВ Greek alphabet.] inВ expression (3) can take aВ variety ofВ values. Yes, electromagnetic waves are quantized, but aВ quantum ofВ infrared light has less energy than UV, and aВ quantum ofВ UV light has less energy than an X-ray quantum.

Therefore, the quantum ofВ electromagnetic radiation (3) is not yet an elementary minimum energy, since inВ nature there are smaller values ofВ radiation quanta ofВ other wavelengths.

Therefore, the question ofВ the existence ofВ elementary energy depends not only on the Planck constant, but also on the question ofВ the existence ofВ an elementary frequency.

This is the question I want to focus the reader’s attention on. This is the question that must be solved in order to create a quantum theory of gravitation.

Therefore, my approach is the following: just as elementary electric charge is necessary toВ construct QED, so also elementary minimum values ofВ mass, energy, momentum, and frequency are necessary toВ construct quantum theory ofВ gravitation.

For a more complete understanding, let’s look at the graphs of the dependence of electric charge, energy, and momentum.






The electric charge is quantized. Therefore electromagnetic field is quantized.






Energy and momentum are quantized inВ n, but they are not quantized inВ frequency \nu. Therefore gravitational field is not quantized.






Quantized energy spectrum in n and continuous energy spectrum in frequency \nu. Expression “matter is quantized” means quantization of energy and momentum at n.




4.В Is there aВ minimum elementary mass?


The lightest particles with a rest mass are the electron and positron. Is the mass of an electron the elementary mass – the minimum mass that all other masses are multiples of it? Is here the same situation as in the case of an electric charge?

ToВ answer this question, it is enough toВ calculate the ratio ofВ the masses ofВ all elementary particles toВ the mass ofВ the electron. If all these relations are equal toВ natural numbers, then we can say that the mass ofВ the electron is an elementary mass.

However, after making these simple calculations, we can see that these ratios are not natural numbers, for example, the ratio of the muon and electron masses is ~206.768…, the ratio of the proton and electron masses is ~1836.1527…, and so on.

You can double-check these calculations for all particles with aВ rest mass. As aВ result ofВ these simple calculations, it is easy toВ see that, unlike the electric charge, the masses ofВ elementary particles are not proportional toВ the mass ofВ the electron.






(4)



What conclusions can be drawn from these facts?

Can we say that the mass of an electron is an elementary mass based on these facts? Isn’t it that the opposite conclusion follows from these facts?

This means that we can no longer describe the gravitational interaction between an electron and a proton as an exchange of one virtual graviton. A proton is heavier than an electron and its gravitational field is stronger than that of an electron. And stronger in a non-integer number of times ~1836.1527…

Are we reasoning correctly?

Maybe there is a mass of neutrinos and it is the minimum and elementary mass? Or maybe there is a certain elementary particle – the carrier of the minimum elementary mass? Then it is logical to assume that all other particles with a rest mass must be constructed from neutrinos or from such a particle – carrier of elementary mass. If this were true, then this particle with a mass less than the mass of the electron would appear at particle collisions in colliders. However, experiments rather refute than confirm this line of thought [17—19].

Is it possible toВ assert the presence ofВ an elementary mass on the basis ofВ these data? No, IВ think.




5.В Is there the elementary mass inВ the relativity theory?


Even if we found an elementary mass inВ aВ non-relativistic theory, inВ relativity, attempts toВ quantize mass are complicated byВ the fact that inВ it the mass depends on the velocity:








Therefore, inВ the theory ofВ relativity, the question ofВ the existence ofВ an elementary mass depends on the existence ofВ an elementary velocity.
