Variable speed of light with Einstein and stated both speed and direction of light change in a gravity field first published 1923 in English, 1920 in German. Born expressed the magnitude of light speed as the square root of (−"g"/"g") gravity components in general relativity to leave no doubt about his intent. Richard Tolman also agreed with Einstein and expressed the radial speed of light as "dr"/"dt" in a gravity field. where "m" is "MG"/"c" and where natural units are used such that "c" is equal to one. Robert Dicke, in 1957, developed a related VSL theory of gravity. In contrast to Einstein, Dicke
Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light The Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) performs basic research in optical metrology, optical communication, new optical materials, plasmonics and nanophotonics and optical applications in biology and medicine. It is part of the Max Planck Society and was founded on January 1, 2009 in Erlangen near Nuremberg. The Institute is based on the Max Planck Research Group "Optics, Information and Photonics", which was founded in 2004 at the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, as a precursor. The institute currently comprises five divisions. The institute currently is organized in five divisions, each
