Extinction Shift Principle^©

A pure Classical Physics look at Electromagnetism and Gravitation

Emission and Re-emission done correctly

derived using step-by-step clear classical approaches only

in a recently published book

For nearly a century now, there has been absolutely no concrete, pure classical treatment to the physics problems pertaining to significant fractions of the velocity of light. Until now, no alternative methods had been presented that use pure classical approaches which are explainable with simple, intuitive measures without having to resort to the usual framework of Special and General Relativity.

There is now a simple, profound and completely overlooked classical alternative to the Special and General Relativity principles. It is the correct alternative that uses only the electrodynamics of Galilean transformations in Euclidean Space Geometry alone according to the principal axioms of the Extinction Shift Principle; a pure Classical Physics discipline coined and developed by this author.

A CLEAR FACT supported by OBSERVATIONAL EVIDENCE

You can search continually the known cosmic sky with the most modern instruments without ever finding direct evidence for gravitational lensing in the optical region of the spectrum as suggested by the light bending rule of General Relativity. With modern instruments, the evidence should be clearly revealed. The cosmic sky should be filled with visible lensing effects on the light emitted from background sources, everywhere coinciding with the presence of point-like super massive bodies in the foreground.

A RECENT FINDING

A direct interaction between the gravitation of the sun and the rays of starlight apparently does not take place in the vacuum space far above the plasma rim of the sun. It is apparent that, in consistency with nearly a century of astronomical observations, an indirect interaction between the gravitation of the sun and the rays of starlight takes place only within the thin plasma rim of the sun.

Gravitational light bending effect of the sun as function of Analytical Gaussian Spheres

of radii 2R, 3R, 4R and 5R where R is one solar radius and M is the total mass enclosed

(the OBSERVED and the NOT OBSERVED in vacuum space far above the solar plasma rim)

Note that within current technical means, the light bending effect as predicted by General Relativity should be an easily detectable effect at the analytical Gaussian spherical surfaces of radii 2R, 3R, 4R and 5R, respectively, resulting in at least one half, one third, one forth and one fifth, respectively, of the light bending effect observed at the rim. This effect is NOT OBSERVED in the vacuum space far above the solar plasma rim.

The evidence clearly supports a misunderstanding and/or a misapplication of important fundamentals surrounding gravitational lensing.

THE OBSERVATIONAL EVIDENCE

If the light bending rule of General Relativity were actually valid, then the night sky should be filled with Einstein rings, since there are many instances where the observer, a star acting as a lens and another star that is acting as a source happen to lie on or close to a direct line-of-sight.
Within current technical means, the light bending effect of the sun should be easily detectable well beyond the thin plasma rim of the sun for distances of several solar radii far above the solar plasma rim into the empty vacuum space.
The light emitted from the rapidly moving stars, moving along precise elliptical paths about Sagittarius A*, strictly according to Kepler's laws, shows absolutely no evidence of a gravitational light bending effect to date; a region intensely observed by the astrophysicists since 1992.
