Hi guys, it's been a while. I have a thought that I've been pondering, and I'd like to know what you all think.
Riddle me this: Every force has an associated massless force particle (electromagnetism has the photon, gravity the graviton, etc.). Black holes are objects possessing so much mass that they cause even massless particles to fall in and become entrapped. This is the paradox: If even photons are sucked in, why aren't gravitons? Sure, gravitons would be emitted to carry the force, but wouldn't the emitted gravitons just be sucked right back in? Why should they be able to escape a black hole when nothing else can?
Some thoughts:
Are force particles "immune" to the force they carry?
Doesn't the idea that black holes emit these particles stand contrary to the fact that nothing can escape them (aside form some other quantum evaporation)?
