Is principle of constancy of light velovity necessary?

sci.physics.relativity: But yes, in GR (not SR) light does not always propagate with speed c, when measured in vacuum over non-local paths. Bravo Honest Roberts but you should start interpreting this variability of the speed of light QUANTITATIVELY: How does the speed of light vary with the gravitational potential V? Einstein's 1911 equation c'=c(1+V/c^2)? If this equation is wrong Honest Roberts, as you and your brother zombie Paul Andersen often suggest, then why don't you give the correct equation? Finally, does the frequency shift f'=f(1+V/c^2) experimentally confirmed by Pound and Rebka have anything to do with Einstein's 1911 equation c'=c(1+V/c^2) or, generally, with the fact that the speed of light varies with position in a gravitational field? These are important questions Honest Roberts..... Pentcho Valev |
