If this were not so, there would be no bending of light by the gravitational field of stars. One can do a simple Huyghens reconstruction of a wave front, taking into account the different speed of advance of the wavefront at different distances from the star (variation of speed of light), to derive the deflection of the light by the star. Indeed, this is exactly how Einstein did the calculation in: "On the Influence of Gravitation on the Propagation of Light," Annalen der Physik, 35, 1911. which predated the full formal development of general relativity by about four years. This paper is widely available in English. You can find a copy beginning on page 99 of the Dover book "The Principle of Relativity." You will find in section 3 of that paper, Einstein's derivation of the (variable) speed of light in a gravitational potential, eqn (3). The result is, c' = c0 ( 1 + V / c^2 ) where V is the gravitational potential relative to the point where the speed of light c0 is measured." Einsteinians love Einstein passionately but, on the other hand, their honest hearts would not tolerate any trickery. As soon as they manage to understand why Einstein hid the obviously correct deduction VARIABLE SPEED OF LIGHT - FREQUENCY SHIFT and replaced it with the trumped-up deduction TIME DILATION - FREQUENCY SHIFT they will unmask him. There can be no doubt about that. Pentcho Valev Variable speed of light doesn't produce a Frequency shift. Try dropping a series of pebbles from an arbitrary altitude --1 pebble per second. Wrt you these will strike the ground at the same frequency, i.e. at 1 pebble per second, even though each of them accelerated on the way down. Wrt a ground obsever the frequency will be higher, thus requiring a ticking rate offset of his clock wrt the high altitude clock. Richard Perry .................................................. .................... To Richard Perry, Your statement above is not true. The frequency at which the pebbles fall will be the same for the person that dropped them as well as the ground observer which receives them. Len Gaasenbeek. Then how would you explain the gravitational red shift? Richard Perry .................................................. ............. To Richard Perry, Read my Selected Papers which you will find at: http://www2.rideau.net/gaasbeek Len Gaasenbeek. I read the relevent article on your sight. It was irrelevant. Slower muons decay faster. This is the conclusion of special relativity and also your conclusion. The difference is that you are attempting to relate the faster decay rate to a change in the internal processess that vary in form with speed of the particle, whereas special relativity does not relate the faster decay rate to the internal processes per se, but rather to the change in their rate of progression. From what frame are you referencing the speed of the muons? Do these absolute internal processes of yours dissappear wrt an observer moving at near c wrt the "stopped" muons? Or are you assuming motion wrt a fixed aether? Richard Perry .................................................. ................

Richard Perry I didn't finish the above. What I was getting at is that there is a differnece between deduction and induction. The former, if the premises are true, will always yeild a true conclusion. The latter will sometimes yeild true conclusions, and sometimes false conclusions. Given even a single false premise early on in an extensive logical chain of arguments, the entirety of the resultant "theory" will become a tangled web of deciet, even if unintentionally, and though seeming on the surface to be consistent it will have, if chased far enough, insurmountable contradictions inherent in it. In the present state of physics these contradictions are all regarded as simply "open questions." Sooner or later these will be answered with yet further assumptions, translated as a continuation of the web of deciet and obfuscation. Assumptions will increase the likelihood of incorrectness at a logarithmic rate, literally. Richard Perry |
