Gravitation and Quantum Theory - Reflections on some basic questions — •Thomas Görnitz — Karl-Mangold-Str. 13, 81245 München — Fachbereich Physik, Goethe-Uni Frankfurt/M

Einstein's GRTh has proven itself excellently in all empirical investigations, including the universal equality of inertial and heavy mass. Gravity proves to be a space-time geometry that affects everything identically. Nevertheless, there are cloudings of this fascinating image. It has been known since 1933 that there must be "dark matter". Homogeneity and isotropy of the background radiation led to the invention of inflation. The Kruskal metric shows a seamless incidence from the outside into the inside of a black hole, in which all matter disappears in a mathematical point. Most problematic is that the efforts to connect GRTh with quantum theory in a conventional way remained in vain, as did the search for particles to explain inflation or dark matter. Fundamental quantum theoretical reflections reveal the core of this problem and a way out of it. The solutions already achieved are presented.
