If the photon loses momentum p, it loses energy pc-p(c-v), where c-v is the final speed wrt the source. But if an atom with mass m gains this momentum p, it has to gain the kinetic energy p^2/(2m). Conservation of energy implies then pv = p^2/(2m). v=p/2m %redshift = v/c = p/2mc = pc/mc^2 = Eo/mc^2 = h/[m.c.lambda] How interesting.....atom speed doesn't appear in the equation..... > >>>> Consider a stream of photons passing through a volume of rare gas, in >>>> which the >>>> atoms are moving randomly. >>>> It is fairly easy to imagine the atoms being dragged along slightly by >>>> the >>>> photons The question is, how much are the photons dispersed/deflected by >>>> the >>>> sideways movement of the atoms. >>>> >>>> It cannot violate energy conservation.

Yes I have no problem with that. We are talking about slightly different effects. My point is that if the telescope is pointed absolutely vertically, the beam of light that runs down the centre will actually be angled slightly away from the vertical. So a star that appears dead vertical will in reality not BE dead vertical. Same thing really. The angle WILL be light speed sensitive but only very slightly in any real situation. > >>>> ....

George, according to GR, the clock maintains its 'proper rate' after being sent into orbit. An observer accompanying the clock into orbit would observe no change in the clock's rate. GR says the apparent increase wrt the GO is due to the strange notion that 'the duration of a clock second is shorter in less gravity'. Now we know what the proper rate is because that is what the GO measured when the clock was with him on the ground before launch. It is """"N ticks per GPS orbit"""". When the clock joins the OO in orbit, it is the OO who directly reads the clock's 'proper rate'...because the OO is in the same gravity situation. So the OO should count N ticks per orbit NOT N+n. Since we can be sure that the reference time duration (the orbit) has NOT changed, our only sensible conclusion is that the clock's proper rate has changed 'physically'. > >George > HW. www.users.bigpond.com/hewn/index.htm Sometimes I feel like a complete failure.

GR is incompatible with that finding....plain and >simple... In what manner is the prediction (of GR) that clocks in orbit are observed to run at different rates than clocks on the surface incompatible with GR? Or are you just making another of your grossly ignorant vomitings? >HW. >www.users.bigpond.com/hewn/index.htm > >Sometimes I feel like a complete failure. >The most useful thing I have never done is prove Einstein wrong. |
