Mass generation via gravitational confinement of fast neutrinos

Abstract

We analyze the dependence on neutrino energy of the gravitational attraction between ultrarelativistic neutrinos using Special Relativity and the equivalence principle of inertial and gravitational mass. It is found that when accounting for the special relativistic increase in particle mass with particle speed, then this gravitational force reaches the value of the Strong Force at a neutrino energy of 313 MeV, corresponding to the effective mass of a quark. This force can sustain the rotational motion of self-gravitating neutrino triads or electron/positron-neutrino pairs, and thus lead to the self driven generation of mass, i.e. of hadrons and bosons, the masses of which can be computed with an astonishing precision of 1\% without any adjustable parameters.
