Polarized light from black hole can be a symbol of Cherenkov radiation generated by Faster Than Light movement in vacuum under gravity
Sterling-Jilin Liu

TL;DR
This paper suggests that polarized light from black holes can be explained as Cherenkov radiation caused by Faster Than Light movement in vacuum under gravity, challenging the notion of constant light speed in general relativity.
Contribution
It proposes a novel interpretation of black hole polarized light as Cherenkov radiation, implying variable light speed in gravitational fields and supporting the existence of gravitational lensing.
Findings
Polarized light from Cygnus X-1 fits Cherenkov radiation model.
Refractive index of space increases with gravity.
Light speed varies with gravitational potential.
Abstract
Light speed is assumed as a constant in Einstein's general relativity theory. In this paper, the polarized light from black hole Cygnus X-1 is found fit well with Cherenkov radiation generated by Faster Than Light movement in vacuum under gravity. Thus, proved the gravitational lens is a real existence, the refractive index of space did increase with the gravity field, and light speed is changeable with gravitational potential energy. Possible experiments to double verify the theory on the earth is discussed. A new way to find more advanced alien civilizations in lower gravitational potential energy area is proposed.
