Gravitational birefringence and an exotic formula for redshift
arXiv:1802.09295 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.97.123508
Abstract
We compute the birefringence of light in curved Robertson-Walker spacetimes and propose an exotic formula for redshift based on the internal structure of the spinning photon. We then use the Hubble diagram of supernovae to test this formula.
