GRAVITATIONAL REDSHIFT REFUTES EINSTEIN'S RELATIVITY

The gravitational redshift as measured in numerous experiments confirms Newton's emission theory of light according to which, in a gravitational field, the speed of light varies just like the speed of ordinary mechanical objects:

"The light is perceived to be falling in a gravitational field just like a mechanical object would. (...) The change in speed of light with change in height is dc/dh=g/c."

Albert Einstein Institute: "One of the three classical tests for general relativity is the gravitational redshift of light or other forms of electromagnetic radiation. However, in contrast to the other two tests - the gravitational deflection of light and the relativistic perihelion shift -, you do not need general relativity to derive the correct prediction for the gravitational redshift. A combination of Newtonian gravity, a particle theory of light, and the weak equivalence principle (gravitating mass equals inertial mass) suffices. (...) The gravitational redshift was first measured on earth in 1960-65 by Pound, Rebka, and Snider at Harvard University..."

If the gravitational redshift confirms the variation of the speed of light predicted by Newton's emission theory, does it confirm the variation predicted by Einstein's relativity as well? General relativity predicts a variation of the speed of light twice as great as the variation of the speed of ordinary mechanical objects:

Steve Carlip: "It is well known that the deflection of light is twice that predicted by Newtonian theory; in this sense, at least, light falls with twice the acceleration of ordinary "slow" matter."

"Einstein wrote this paper in 1911 in German. (...) ...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+phi/c^2) where phi is the gravitational potential relative to the point where the speed of light co is measured. (...) You can find a more sophisticated derivation later by Einstein (1955) from the full theory of general relativity in the weak field approximation. (...) Namely the 1955 approximation shows a variation in km/sec twice as much as first predicted in 1911."

"Specifically, Einstein wrote in 1911 that the speed of light at a place with the gravitational potential phi would be c(1+phi/c^2), where c is the nominal speed of light in the absence of gravity. In geometrical units we define c=1, so Einstein's 1911 formula can be written simply as c'=1+phi. However, this formula for the speed of light (not to mention this whole approach to gravity) turned out to be incorrect, as Einstein realized during the years leading up to 1915 and the completion of the general theory. (...) ...we have c_r =1+2phi, which corresponds to Einstein's 1911 equation, except that we have a factor of 2 instead of 1 on the potential term."

So we have:

NEWTON'S EMISSION THEORY: predicted speed-of-light shift c'=c(1+phi/c^2); measured frequency shift f'=c'/L=f(1+phi/c^2) where L is the wavelength.

EINSTEIN'S GENERAL RELATIVITY: predicted speed-of-light shift c'=c(1+2phi/c^2); measured frequency shift f'=f(1+phi/c^2).

Clearly the measured frequency shift f'=f(1+phi/c^2) is compatible with the speed-of-light shift c'=c(1+phi/c^2) predicted by the emission theory but is incompatible with the speed-of-light shift c'=c(1+2phi/c^2) predicted by general relativity.

There seems to be only one paper on Internet trying to convince the reader that the measured frequency shift f'=f(1+phi/c^2) is compatible with both the speed-of-light shift c'=c(1+phi/c^2) predicted by Newton's emission theory and the speed-of-light shift c'=c(1+2phi/c^2) predicted by Einstein's general relativity:

"The difference between c'=c(1+2phi/c^2) (1916) and c'=c(1+phi/c^2) (1911) is the factor 2 with the gravitational potential. Gravitational redshift gives no decision which of the equations is the right one."
