A connection between gravity and the Higgs field
arXiv:hep-ph/0204106
Abstract
Several arguments suggest that an effective curved space-time structure (of the type as in General Relativity) can actually find its dynamical origin in an underlying condensed medium of spinless quanta. For this reason, we exploit the recent idea of density fluctuations in a `Higgs condensate' with the conclusion that such long-wavelength effects might represent the natural dynamical agent of gravity.
