Propagation Speed of Gravity and the Relativistic Time Delay

Propagation Speed of Gravity and the Relativistic Time Delay

We calculate the delay in the propagation of a light signal past a massive body that moves with speed v, under the assumption that the speed of propagation of the gravitational interaction cg differs from that of light. Using the post-Newtonian approximation, we consider an expansion in powers of v/c …
