A Cheap, Rational and Testable Refinement of Special and General Relativity

- The main testable idea of this contribution is quite a new explanation of the light flash of gamma bursts. As will be shown, a free falling particle converts its rest mass partly into wave energy. This is freed when the particle hits the surface of a star. Such an effect during the col-lapse to a neutron star might be seen as a gamma burst ? unexplained by classical general relativity up to now.
- The central theoretical idea: In general relativity, there is not a curved space-time in a phi-losophical sense. U < 2?r or U > 2?r follow if measuring rods contract in gravitational fields and this different in radial and tangential directions of a circle.
