Exact difference between virtual gravitons and ultramundaneparticles? |
According to modern physics, Newton's 1/r^2 attraction of gravity
is due to the exchange of virtual gravitons.
Also the vacuum is full of virtual gravitons.
What is the *exact* difference with Fatio's/Lesage's ultramundane
particles? The latter have been rejected because they predict
- braking of inertial motion
- aberration
- heating of masses
and maybe more strange effects.
Why do virtual gravitons differ? Or put in another way:
how do virtual gravitons produce the 1/r^2 force without
all these side effects?
Of course, ultramundane particles do not describe
the curvature of space; but if we remain in the 1/r^2
regime, what are the differences, and the reasons
for these differences?

Oh yeah, and who is Mr. "Modern Physics"?
Heinrich Neumaier?

That is a "theory" that doesn't yet exit! Not a testable
theory.

We're hoping, however, that present theory will 'exit' soon.

Any particular reason?
