We offer a concise and direct way to derive the bending angle of light (i.e. as generally called, gravitational lensing), while light grazes a star, through the approach suggested earlier by the first author, which is fundamentally based on the energy conservation law and the weak equivalence principle. We come out with the same result as that of the general theory of relativity (GTR), although the philosophies behind are totally different from each other. We emphasize that in our approach, there is no need to draw a distinction between light and ordinary matter, which makes our approach of gravity potentially compatible with quantum mechanics. Furthermore, our equation that furnishes gravitational lensing, also furnishes the result about the precession of the perihelion of a planet. The results obtained are discussed.

In the seventies, scientists observed discrepancies of the bending of light around the Sun based on Einsteins prediction of the curvature of star light due to the mass of the Sun. We claim that the interior electromagnetic properties of the Sun influ
ence the curvature of the light path outside the Sun as well. In this paper, we investigate the additional deflection of light in the vacuum region surrounding the Sun by its electromagnetic parameters. Starting with Maxwells equations, we show how the deflection of light passing the Sun depends on the electric permittivity and the magnetic permeability of the interior of the Sun. The electromagnetic field equations in Cartesian coordinates are transformed to the ones in an appropriately chosen Riemannian space. This coordinate transform is dictated by the introduction of a refractional potential. The geodetic lines with the shortest propagation time are constructed from this potential. As far as the deflection of light propagating along these geodetic lines is concerned, we show that the existence of a refractional potential influences the light path outside any object with a typical refractive index. Our results add new aspects to the bending of star light explained by general relativity. Some astrophysical observations, which cannot be explained by gravity in a satisfactory manner, are justified by the electromagnetic model. In particular, the frequency dependency of the light deflection is discussed. We show that the additional bending due to the refractive index is proportional to the third power of the inverse distance. The general relativity predicts that the bending due to the mass is proportional to the inverse distance.
The photoeffect, (vacuum analogue of the photoelectric effect,) is used to study the structure of the physical vacuum, the outcome of which is the basis for an hypothesis on the nature of gravitation and inertia. The source of gravitation is the vacu
um which has a weak massless elementary electrical dipole (+/-) charge. Inertia is the result of the elastic force of the vacuum in opposition to the accelerated motion of material objects. The vacuum is seen as the source of attraction for all bodies according to the law of induction.
The so-called principle of relativity is able to fix a general coordinate transformation which differs from the standard Lorentzian form only by an unknown speed which cannot in principle be identified with the light speed. Based on a reanalysis of t
he Michelson-Morley experiment using this extended transformation we show that such unknown speed is analytically determined regardless of the Maxwell equations and conceptual issues related to synchronization procedures, time and causality definitions. Such a result demonstrates in a pedagogical manner that the constancy of the speed of light does not need to be assumed as a basic postulate of the special relativity theory since it can be directly deduced from an optical experiment in combination with the principle of relativity. The approach presented here provides a simple and insightful derivation of the Lorentz transformations appropriated for an introductory special relativity theory course.
We study the propagation of light in the presence of a parity-violating coupling between photons and axion-like particles (ALPs). Naively, this interaction could lead to a split of light rays into two separate beams of different polarization chiralit
y and with different refraction angles. However, by using the eikonal method we explicitly show that this is not the case and that ALP clumps do not produce any spatial birefringence. This happens due to non-trivial variations of the photons frequency and wavevector, which absorb time-derivatives and gradients of the ALP field. We argue that these variations represent a new way to probe the ALP-photon couping with precision frequency measurements.
Within the framework of relativistic theory of gravitation the exact spherically-symmetric wave solution is received. It is shown that this solution possesses the positive-definite energy and momentum deriving with the Fock energy-momentum density te
nsor of gravitational field. In this connection the sense of Birkhoff theorem in Relativistic Theory of Gravitation is discussed.
