Equation 1 · Part 5 · How Much of Gravitationally Induced Entanglement Is in the Eye of the Frame

Mass of B

\varphi_{ij} = G m_A m_B t / (\hbar d_{ij})

m_B

What this part means

The mass of the second object, measured in kilograms. The phase grows in proportion to the product $m_A$ $m_B$ .

Its job in the formula

This mass is the second factor in the mass product. It changes the size of every phase and their differences.

The passage around this formula

…relational quantities — distances between mass A’s branches and mass B’s branches — and relational quantities do not change when you change which system you have designated the reference frame. Write $\varphi_{ij}$ = G $m_A$ $m_B$ t / ( $\hbar$ $d_{ij}$ ) for the phase a pair of branches i,j $\in$ \{L,R\} accumulates over interaction time t at separation $d_{ij}$ , with G Newton’s constant and $\hbar$ the reduced Planck constant. Three of the four possible combinations of these branch-pair phases can always be removed by a purely…
