> Because they are vibrating, a lot of that energy is being wasted in brownian motion. So the denser it is, the more your average vector is going to be toward more dense brownian motion as the particles interact and induce more brownian motion ... Seems pretty intuitive to me.
Abstract: "According to the weak form of the equivalence principle all objects fall at the same rate in a gravitational field. However, recent calculations in finite-temperature quantum field theory have revealed that at T>0 heavier and/or colder objects actually fall faster than their lighter and/or warmer counterparts. This unexpected result is demonstrated using elementary quantum mechanical arguments."
I feel like you have somehow found the least authoritative source for the wonderful new information provided...
why did you choose that one? serious question, because I'm trying to understand your process (and yes, maybe gently challenging it, but unsure if I should, bc you are clearly knowledgeable in specific ways about this)
So this is why warm objects weigh more?
