Hi all,
This is a speculative question, but one I’d really appreciate input on from those with a stronger grounding in field theory and quantum mechanics.
We know that gravity and electromagnetism are fundamentally distinct forces, but they share a number of interesting parallels: both act at a distance, follow the inverse square law, and interact through continuous fields that permeate space.
That got me wondering:
Could it be possible that gravity and electromagnetism interact with matter based, at least in part, on the frequency of the particles or systems involved?
In other words:
If this were true, gravity and EM might represent different parts of a broader interaction spectrum not unified in the traditional sense, but differentiated by the types of vibrational states or frequency bands of matter they interact with.
Some implications or questions that come to mind:
Thanks for any insight.

In other words:
- Electromagnetism seems to couple most strongly to high-frequency, fast-moving particles like electrons and photons.
- Gravity, in contrast, may couple more directly to slow-moving, low-frequency systems atoms, massive particles, and macroscopic bodies.
If this were true, gravity and EM might represent different parts of a broader interaction spectrum not unified in the traditional sense, but differentiated by the types of vibrational states or frequency bands of matter they interact with.
Some implications or questions that come to mind:
- Could this perspective help explain why we can manipulate EM fields so easily, but not gravity?
- Might strong EM fields partially shield or modulate gravitational effects, simply by engaging different energy states?
- Could this point toward any possible experimental approach even if just conceptually for frequency-selective gravitational interaction?
- Are there theories or prior experiments that might touch on this idea from another angle?
Thanks for any insight.
