A Quantum Mechanical View of the Precession of Mercury’s Orbit
Abstract
The calculation of Mercury’s precession about the Sun presented in this article offers a quantum mechanical alternative to the calculation based on general relativity (ref 1). Further, this alternative provides a plausible explanation of Dark Matter in which gravitons act collectively as a small planet between Mercury and the Sun. This unseen graviton bundle of a planet influences the orbit of Mercury causing its precession.
