[General] Velocity of gravitation

[Albrecht Giese]

Hi Chip,

I have found a paper from S. Carlip which is published in a publication 
of CERN. You can find it via the link

http://cds.cern.ch/record/401893/files/9909087.pdf

This paper also refers to the paper of van Flandern. The paper of Carlip 
presents a velocity dependent component of the force vector. This is 
deduced for the electric field by Maxwell's equations and special 
relativity (which essentially means the same). For the gravitational 
field by the use of general relativity. - This velocity dependent 
component can also be understood by imagination if we understand a field 
as a stream of exchange particles. This latter case is easily 
understandable if we are willing to accept an ether as a medium. Because 
for the propagation in an ether there is generally no aberration.

BTW: Einstein has once stated that the existence of aberration of light 
(as visible in astronomy) was for him the most convincing fact for 
rejecting an ether. This was at a time when Einstein did not accept 
light to be a stream of photons. For the latter case there is no 
conflict between an ether and aberration of light (as particles).

Thank you, Oliver Consa, for the literature. And thank you, Al 
Kracklauer, for your comment, I shall come back to it.
