Jay-qu I find your posts very interesting and well presented and I personaly thank you for your wonderful input...
You said........
Each of these interacts via the exchange of virtual particles, particles seem to have mass because they are interacting with this Higgs field that exists everywhere.
I am very interested in this aspect.
I gather that quantum physics suggests gravity may be communicated via this exchange of particles.
Can you tell me or point me in the right direction to expalin how these particles interact and what interests me mostly..does something send out a virtual particle ..and when it meets something else that a message (in effect comes back so the relationship between the two can be set?
Say in gravity... does the Earth send out virtual particles and the Moon ..for example..picks up such a virtual particle and then sends back another particle to the Earth to let it know where it is its mass etc.
OR is the "message" one way?
