[General] Velocity of gravitation

[Chip Akins]

Hi Albrecht

 

I find this very interesting. Where can I get more information and data about the non-aberration of the electric field? Are there papers and publications you recommend?

Hi Wolf, hi All, 

some time ago we had a discussion here about gravity. In particular about the question whether the propagation speed of the gravitational field is c or infinite. The problem behind is the fact that a finite propagation speed of gravity should cause rotating pairs of stars to permanently increase their speed, because the other star appears at a retarded position and so the force between the stars should have a tangential component. Our discussion ended at that time with the result that the Liénard-Wiechert potential would solve the problem.

This was not very satisfying because the Liénard-Wiechert formalism is only about the field at a retarded time, and this description by itself does not solve this problem. I found that the solution is a completely different phenomenon. It is the fact (and as such well known in the physical literature) that fields like the electric field and also the gravitational field (our case) never show aberration. This is – according to literature – a well-known fact which is also theoretically well understood. But most are not aware of it, like me. 

Experimentally it can in the case of the electrical field be proven in the laboratory. And the motion of stars show it for the gravitational case. 

Do you feel that this helps?

Albrecht
