This is an expression which we know from Newton's law of gravity.<br><br>If we now assume that an elementary particle is built by a sub-structure which orbits at c in an horizontal orientation (which I mean when I say "zitterbewegung"), then this orbital motion and so the motion of the elementary particle as a whole will have an acceleration downwards according to the equation given above. And so it will reproduce the Newtonian acceleration for this special case. If now the orientation of the elementary particle is not horizontal but it has an arbitrary orientation, it needs additional calculations but has the same result. So, this is a deduction of Newton's law of gravity from the assumption of a refraction of light-like particles.<br><br>You have made the assumption of a wave front.

They have measured the light deflection at the sun, and the result conforms to the theory (of Einstein or equivalent ones, see further down) with an accuracy of 10^-4. This excludes in my understanding any influence of a plasma layer around the sun, because even if there would be plasma having this influence, there could not be exactly the same result as from conventional theory by this precision, and plasma could not even provide this reproducibility. Dowdy normally refers to measurements of NASA but has never given a reference to such measurements.<br><br>The deflection is, according to Einstein, caused by the curvature of space-time around the sun. It can also be deduced in an alternative way. The speed of light is reduced in the vicinity of an object. This causes classical refraction. An according calculation has the same analytical(!) result as the approach of Einstein. And it makes the assumption plausible that the mass of the deflected object does not influence this deflection/refraction. <br><br>One can go a step further and apply this refraction process to the internal motion in elementary particles, the "Zitterbewegung". This immediately results in Newton's law of gravity. And it also reproduces the results of Einstein's General Relativity. And further it explains the (weak) equivalence principle, the fact that any object has the same gravitational acceleration independent of its mass. (In present main stream physics this equivalence is called a mystery.) <br><br>The next question in this row: what is the cause of the reduction of the speed of light. A plausible assumption is that the light like particles affected here are influence by the exchange particles of other forces. With this assumption gravity is not the force no. 4 but no force at all. It is simply refraction.<br><br>Albrecht<br><br><o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>Am 09.10.2015 um 09:40 schrieb <a href="mailto:af.kracklauer@web.de">af.kracklauer@web.de</a>:<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>Gentlemen:<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>Is there counterevidence to Ed Dowdy's observation that there is NO light defection about the Sun for rays not passing through the corona where they must be diverted as plasma waves?<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><div style='border:none;border-left:solid #C3D9E5 1.5pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 8.0pt;margin-left:7.5pt;margin-top:7.5pt;margin-right:3.75pt;margin-bottom:3.75pt;word-wrap:break-word' name=quote><div style='margin-bottom:7.5pt'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:0cm;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal'><b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>Gesendet:</span></b><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif;mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'> Freitag, 09.

Most important points are that there are some confusions:<br>1) mass is not matter<br>2) energy is equivalent, exactly the same as, mass: E=mc^2<br>3) light is massive, both in the inertial and gravitational sense, as is obvious from experiment<br>4) the greatest confusion is about light being massless, which indeed it would be if it couldn't/didn't move. The whole point is that light is always moving at the speed of light, so it is a non-existing limit.<br><br>Weighing a box with a molecular gas, or that of a "photon" gas give the same kind of result: the gravitational mass of the gas plus the weight of the box. Light is gravitationally deflected by large masses, experimentally.
