The Origin of Gravity: A Refraction Process — •Albrecht Giese — Taxusweg 15, 22605 Hamburg

The phenomena of GR can - as well as those of SR - be derived from processes internal to elementary particles.

From astronomical observations we know that the speed of light is reduced in a gravitational field. On the other hand, from classical optics it follows that the track of a light-like particle, which moves in a medium with variable c, is subject to a refraction process. This already explains correctly the famous deflection of photons passing the sun, no factor of 2 is missing!

Also the internal oscillation of an elementary particle, which according to Dirac/Schrödinger goes on at the speed of light, is subject to this refraction process. That is why a free moving elementary particle is accelerated towards the gravitational source. The mathematical deduction yields the correct gravitational acceleration. This process also explains why all objects are subject to the same acceleration. So, the necessity of an equivalence principle becomes obsolete.

This approach further gives the reason for the attracting-only nature of gravitation, and it offers an explanation for Dark Matter.
