Newtonian gravity as an entropic force: Towards a derivation of G

TL;DR

This paper explores the idea that Newtonian gravity could emerge as an entropic force from a holographic microscopic theory, aiming to derive the gravitational constant G from fundamental constants.

Contribution

It proposes a framework to derive Newton's gravitational constant G from microscopic theory constants, linking gravity to entropy and holography.

Findings

G can potentially be derived from microscopic constants

Gravity may emerge as an entropic force

Supports holographic interpretations of gravity

Abstract

It has been suggested that the Newtonian gravitational force may emerge as an entropic force from a holographic microscopic theory. In this framework, the possibility is reconsidered that Newton's gravitational coupling constant G can be derived from the fundamental constants of the underlying microscopic theory.
