Newtonian gravity as an entropic force: Towards a derivation of G
arXiv:1006.2094 · doi:10.1088/0264-9381/28/12/125003
Abstract
It has been suggested that the Newtonian gravitational force may emerge as an entropic force from a holographic microscopic theory. In this framework, the possibility is reconsidered that Newton's gravitational coupling constant G can be derived from the fundamental constants of the underlying microscopic theory.
