%0 Journal Article %T The Causes of Gravity and the Strong Force %J - %D 2016 %X The physical causes of gravity and the related strong force are developed quantitatively with major improvements in the ˇ°pushing gravityˇ± concepts of Le Sage and others. Large particles and objects are shown able to coast through a gas of subatomic particles without loss of velocity or energy. The strong force declines with the 4th power of distance, and the strong force of a small particle on a large one is greater than the strong force of the large one on the small one, making small particles very suitable for retaining nuclear components. %K Gravity %K Strong Force %K Aether %K Gravitons %U http://www.sciencepublishinggroup.com/journal/paperinfo?journalid=122&doi=10.11648/j.ajmp.s.2016050101.12
