Is there any reason gravity itself is not the mediator of osmosis making gravitation the consequence of energy equilibrium?

But even if gravity itself is the mediator of osmosis, how does that make gravitation the consequence of energy equilibrium?

No details needed. Osmosis is a blockage of chemical species by a membrane. No connection to gravity – none – zilch – zip – nada.

to expand on that:

“Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a semi-permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.”

Because momentum is conserved, so if some mass is increasing in momentum, relative to some non-accelerating reference point, there will be other masses that are reducing in momentum. Note that velocity is different to speed.

No, but spatial expansion will reduce mass per unit volume, not increase it.

That doesn’t answer the question.

Imagine yourself at the centre of mass of some large block of space, containing many massive objects. As space expands, how does the overall momentum of this block of space change, relative to its centre of mass?

Osmosis might be replaceable by another word if I figure out the simplest questions involved. As the title suggests I’ve already gone the long way round and this is my approach to taking the simplest path of questioning.

Interesting.

Is the energy spent by a particle under gravitational pressure as photons emitted the shedding of non rest mass energy, making an atom that fuses with another within a star one that has only rest mass left?

I have stated I do this as an intellectual(non-subjective) exercise as a means to calm the mind during periods of stress and the same observations are inevitably made.

This particular stillness exercise has provided an observation.

Within a gravity well what is it that provides curvature to space?

My conclusion is the elongation of the moment of existence of vacuum virtual particles in proximity to a mass is the source of spacetime curvature and thus the mediator of gravity and gravitational acceleration.

Could this scenario provide the erroneous mass referred to as DM?

Could this further illustrate spatial expansion and DE as spatial dilation as fusion mass is generated?

Yes I’d almost got out of the habit but someone on tv used it the same way and reinstated the misconception. I can’t get my perspective on gravity any simpler than the last brief and it has given me some new angles to explore methodically so I’m happy with the ultimate result.
