The Breaking of Symmetry in Gravitational Attraction and the Random Motion of a Hydrogen Gas Molecule

Choong Gun Sim · Physical Science International Journal · 2019

This paper examines symmetry breaking in gravitational attraction between gluons within a proton and shows that the random motion of hydrogen gas molecules might be caused by this breaking of symmetry. Anisotropic gravitational field is applied to a gluon elementary particle. Gen...
