to the Editor of La Provincia,
Madam, Sir,
The CERN neutrinos, mentioned in your paper, most probably do not go faster than light but the propagation of electro-magnetic waves will be a little swifter inside Earth and so the neutrinos with the same speed arrive earlier than according the century old general theory of relativity, which considers the speed of light in vacuum as constant, although this has not been proven.
New theory by Vasily Yanchilin, presented in his book The Quantum Theory of Gravitation (2003), is based on the hypothesis -which is in agreement with available observations of different kind- that the speed of light is related to the potential of the total mass of the universe. As the latter expands this potential decreases and so the speed of light, but near the mass of a star or even a planet locally that potential becomes somewhat bigger due to the contribution of that mass. Then the speed of neutrinos increases also.
Einstein took constancy of the speed of light only as a temporary hypothesis before quantummechanics was introduced. He did not think that it was quite independent of everything else. Reflect on the words electro, magnetic and waves to get a hint about relationships with other things in the universe.
A solid proof that Einstein's general theory of relativity is wrong seems the observation that light curves towards mass as is well known from rays reflected by Mercurius and passing the sun. Yanchilin explains this with the, in science accepted, principle of least action. A photon seeks its path with as big steps (oscillations) as possible and a minimum of these. It is agreed that near mass the unit of length shrinks and so there the path becomes longer. Einstein thought that near mass the second ticks slower (which would allow black holes to exist, although this is not in agreement with the fast process of the Big Bang when the universe mass was extremely concentrated). If so the photon should take a hyperbola route for mathematically such a quadratic equation results from smaller steps plus more of these during a longer second. The photon coming from Mercurius would show "aversion" to the sun. Yanchilin concludes that the second runs faster near mass.
All this has important consequences, for in the past the speed of light was bigger and therefore the standard of supernovae Ia has to be corrected. Read in the book about details but know already that then there is no accellerated expansion of the universe and the Nobel prize physics 2011 has to be given back as not deserved.
The special theory of relativity stays valid if understood thus that the speed of light is independent of the movement of observers. Because it is related to the potential of the total mass of the universe, which at a certain spot and a certain time is the same in all directions. Superfluous become inflation, the cosmological constant and negative energy. All is worked out very well in the didactically excellent book. However new theories sometimes collide with vested authority and p.e. Wikipedia boycots the work of the russian scientist like in the dark Middle Ages unwelcome books were burnt. Yanchilin remarks that the new theory explains also the red shift of sunlight. In old misunderstanding many astronomers still think that it results from slower second at the sun and from overcoming the sun's gravitational attraction. But not the sum of both is measured! Yanchilin suggests that the new theory is more adequate for understanding physics but adds that further reseach of course will be necessary. The college students then should not be kept ignorant.
When putting atomic clocks at different heights one will be slower and the other faster because of the difference in distance to the Earth' mass. Experiments to prove whether Einstein or Yanchilin is right may be difficult though, for the core of the atom presumably will not be in total rest, may show wobbling of the quarks or swelling to the threshold of radio-activity and such means that the electrons are subject to tiny variations in emission of energy during a lap of time too. Note that measuring phase difference does not confirm the general theory of relativity as it can be in agreement with faster second near mass as well.
Another experiment might be tried with a very precize laser beam at different altitudes, while a prism causes change of path of the photons, which have slightly different frequencies when not on equal distance to the mass of Earth. Measuring the farthest sides of the triangles formed by the beams passing and not passing the prisms might provide info. This is to be achieved at considerable distance in order to get results that can be noticed. However the unit of length varies with altitude, etc. Things become very complicated and therefore good theoretical work-out has to be done first in order to decide whether this can be a serious experiment.

While Newton and Einstein produced only quantitative descriptions of gravity Vasily Yanchilin analyses that his phenomen is a purely quantummechanical process. It can be explained in a few sentences if aquainted with the Heisenberg uncertainty. The new theory maintains that mass reduces this uncertainty and imagine two particles at not big distance. In their halves closest to each other then there will be less transitions to the outer halves (mind that in quantummechanics thresholds are passed, there is spill over from a hole) than from the latter to the inner ones. As a result there is netto transport in the direction of the other particle, which in common language is called gravitational attraction.
It may be studied whether inert mass is not noticed when in rest because the balance of such quantummechanical processes inside an object is in equilibrium until a push from outside disturbs. Then that mass becomes felt. Meanwhile main problems are how potential is noticed, how a photon "knows" about its surroundings, how to maintain a certain speed when nothing is around for reference.
At the University of Amsterdam Yanchilin's book was banned to a distant magazine, difficult to reach by students. Namely a professor there tries to make his own theory of gravity and together with a person at Nijmegen University who does research on (non existing) black holes they received an Erasmus premium of two and a half million euros. See comment "kattekwaad" in dutch language.
Addendum: For better understanding Yanchilin presents in his book a drawing with between points A and B a convex line, a straight line and a concave line and below a mass, all seen from the bottom of the paper. If there is no mass the photons follow the straight line. When there is the mass the photons take the convex path while following the shortest optical distance. In the general theory of relativity they take a straight line in a curved space along that convex line. That theory still gives rather good approximation in several cases when factors vary little.
