Abstract

A study of strong gravity field coupled to the Yukawa field is carried out for a conformally flat space-time. A quantitative relation between the strong interaction coupling constantg2/ħc and the strong gravity constants (Λf~1028 cm−2,G f ~6.6×1030 C.G.S. units) is obtained givingg2/ħ∼17, which is of the right order of magnitude. This justifies the contention that strong gravity is relevant for elementary particles (e.g., hadrons).
