If (constant) is actually a variable, then do you have linear proportionality? (As a technical note, "luminosity" doesn't mean "surface brightness", but "total brightness", i.e., double the surface area while keeping everything else the same, and you double the luminosity. Anyway, it's time to check against reality. Take a well-known close binary system like Sirius. From their mutual orbit, the "known" masses are 2.02M for Sirius A and 0.98M for B (M = solar mass). So, gravitationally, they differ by a factor of 2. How do the luminosities compare? For A, we have 25L (L = solar luminosity), and for B, 0.026L. Factor of 1,000 difference in luminosity, but only a factor of 2 difference in "mass" as measured from the orbit. This isn't at all close to your prediction. Since you're highly intelligent, and a careful and logical thinker, it isn't likely that you made any error in proceeding from your theory to your prediction. Therefore, it's likely that your theory is wrong. > > (2) What do you mean by "photon emission"? What you mean by "photon" > > might not be what conventional science means by "photon".

So, to test you claims of stellar gravity versus luminosity, one should compare stars of the same temperature. Sirius A and B aren't identical, but close. Sirius A is A1V, Sirius B is A2.

I'd want to do a... post mortem on everything. The experiment can be designed to try to achieve a desired accuracy. If you could be bothered saying how accurate the experiment needs to be, then perhaps something could be done. Since you keep refusing to say (and surely you must know how large the effect should be, or at least capable of quickly deducing, from your theory, how large the effect should be), there isn't any point in trying the experiment. If you have two identical balls, and heat one to be double the absolute temperature of the other (i.e., to about 330C; yes, easy to heat it more, but let us keep this simple), the hot ball will radiate 16 times as much power, with peak emission at double the frequency (i.e., half the wavelength). How much stronger will the gravitational force be? If you can be bothered applying your mighty intellect, and actually provide a quantitative answer, perhaps an experimental test might be worthwhile.

NoEinstein Well, if your theory is perfectly OK with a null result, why would a positive result support your theory? Surely your statement above means that the experiment is completely irrelevant to your theory. Or, since the luminosity/gravity predictions of your theory appear to fall at the first astronomical hurdle, perhaps it's more that your theory is irrelevant to reality.
