Lorentz interpretation of GRT - comments, possible experimental proof — •Jürgen Brandes — Karlsruhe, Germany

Ludwig Neidhart reviewed book [1] and recommends it even to those who are critical against Lorentz interpretation (LI) of GRT: "Auch wer dem Standpunkt der Autoren kritisch gegenübersteht, wird es mit Gewinn lesen können, weil ...[2]". The well-known gravitational physicist Kip S. Thorne accepts the two standpoints as correct, the curved spacetime paradigm or classical GRT and the flat spacetime paradigm or LI of GRT. He asks: "Is spacetime really curved? Isn’t it conceivable that spacetime is actually flat, but the clocks and rulers with which we measure it ...are actually rubbery?" and his answer is: "Yes." [2]. The poster presents these ideas and the first steps in calculating supermassive stellar objects (black holes) using TOV equation. Application of this equation on neutron stars and black holes using LI of GRT leads to results different from classical GRT possibly testable by astronomical observations of these stars and galactic centers.
