Particles can decay via gravitational interaction

the verdict
SUPPORTED
the evidence backs this
Recorded sources
5 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Gravitational interactions can induce particle decay and influence decay rates, as demonstrated in cosmological models of particle production and curved spacetime quantum field theory.

The analysis

The retrieved papers provide theoretical and cosmological evidence that particles can decay through gravitational interactions, such as gravitational particle production and inflaton decays into gravitons or matter fields. The literature consistently supports the claim through models of quantum field theory in curved spacetime, and no retrieved papers refute it.
