Red Shift

When the galaxies or other celestial bodies are moving away, the light waves become stretched out, that is, they become redder. This process is called red shift.

How important is red shift to your understanding of the universe?

Redshift happen when light seen from the object that is moving away is proportionally increased in wavelength (i.e shifted toward the red end of the spectrum) . Thus red shifts relates that further the galaxy ( outside or inside the local cluster ) more it is red-shifted (i.e greater the wavelength ) than the closer galaxy and it explain the expansion of our universe , further the galaxy more fast it moves away from us .

Less hyperchromic shift?

A less intense hyperchromic shift indicates a smaller increase in DNA absorbance, suggesting a reduced DNA concentration or increase in single-stranded DNA compared to double-stranded DNA. This shift can result from factors such as DNA degradation, RNA contamination, or incomplete denaturation of DNA during spectrophotometric analysis. Further investigation may be needed to determine the specific cause of the reduced hyperchromic shift.

How does red shift lead to the big bang theory?

The red shift is a Doppler effect for visible light that implies an object is moving away from you. The blue shift is a Doppler effect for visible light that implies an object is moving towards you. Stars are distrbuted within galactic clusters. If a star is red-shifted, the distance between us and that galaxy is increasing. If it is blue-shifted, the distance between us and the galaxy is decreasing.

All galaxies outside our local galactic cluster produce light that is red-shifted; and the greater the distance between us and these outside galaxies, the greater the red shift. That the size of the red shift depends on the distance is considered isotropic (or the same in all directions), meaning the distance between our local galactic cluster and all other galactic clusters is increasing at the same ratio based on distance from us. These distant galactic clusters, demonstrating red shift, are supportive evidence that these outside galaxies are moving further apart consistent with the Big Bang Theory.

While the red shifted starlight is considered supportive evidence of an expanding universe, there are a few examples of blue shifted starlight within our Local galactic cluster. The Andromeda Galaxy is moving towards within the Milky Way galaxy, so when it is observed from Earth, its light is blue shifted. Any even within our own Milky Way galaxy, the Barnard Star is also moving towards Earth and appears to have a slight blue shift.

What does paradyne shift mean?

A paradyme shift refers to a fundamental change in the way people perceive, think about, or approach a particular issue or situation. It represents a significant shift in perspective or mindset that leads to new insights, ideas, or solutions.

Will the Nerf red shift cs-12 come out?

I dont think i will come out but there is something like it The Nerf Longstrike

Explain what the red shift in the background radiation from the big bang tells us?

Based on numerous theories they said that the universe was created by the big bang.

So based on that theory i will give you your answer.

They said that after the big bang radiant energy have been spread at the end of the universe and it's the snow or hiss that has this static sound when you turn on your TV and there are black and white dots...

I personally believe that the beginning of the universe started a bit differently. But to simplify Hubble's law,it's been said that it got created by something that exploded and spread pieces all around cosmos. Earth moon sun e.t.c are pieces from the original "thing" that exploded and

they say that the universe expands like a shock wave.

Just tried to simplify as much as i could the theory.

This answer doesn't endorse my believes in anyway.

All corrections and new ideas and discussions are more than welcome.

I think the background radiation is different from the Stars' red shift. The Stars' red shift may be due to (1) the Universe moving away from Earth, or (2) from the Universe expanding, or (3) from the fact that stars are "gravity holes" and light escaping from a gravity hole is red shifted. I know the third reason is true.

What phenomenon accounts for the blue shift of a star?

If you mean the 'twinkle' of a star that you see in the sky at night, then the colors of the 'twinkle' are caused by layers of the atmosphere at different temperatures bending the light (rather like the shimmer of air you see above a hot road) and splitting it out into the component colors (like a prism).

But if you mean the change in color of a star over its life, then this relates to the how hot the star's core is and it diameter. Stars start of fusing hydrogen and when this runs out they fuse helium then heavier and heavier elements up to iron. When the star starts to fuse helium the core gets hotter and the star puffs up changing from (blue/white/yellow) to a red orange color.

How does the red-shift of galaxies support the Big Bang Theory?

Firstly, the left over energy in the form of microwaves provides evidence for an expansion of space. Similarly, the structure of the CMBR is uniform with minor fluctuations, this shows how galaxies may have formed as the fluctuations allowed the clumping of mass at these points, increasing gravity and in turn causing more mass to gather together. The CMBR can tell us many things about the universe but only at the point of recombination, when the universe became transparent to photons.

The Big Bang Theory perfectly predicted the CMBR. No other hypothesis can adequately explain the CMBR other than saying, "It's just there and I have no way to explain why."

What are Red Shifts Characteristics?

"Red shift" is what we call the "away" version of the Doppler Effect; the "towards" version is called "blue shift." With visible light, things that are retreated at high speed look as though they were colored more toward the long end of the spectrum than they really are. Since the longest color we can see is red, we call this redshifting, although the actual color change we see might be from blue to green (blue is the shortest light we can see -- counting indigo, violet and purple as "blues" --and green is in the middle, so we see it best). The Doppler Effect is also the thing that makes a siren seem to change pitch as it approaches, passes and then leaves your position, something like "iiiiiieieeieeeieeeeeeoeooeooooo oo oo ooo oooo". Since we don't see sound, we don't generally use color words to describe it, but that "iiiiii" portion is the blue shift, the "eeeeee" is the regular siren sound, and the oooo o o o oo oooo" is the redshift.

Do all galaxies outside local group have red shifts?

Yes.

Also, the size of the red-shift for all distant galaxies is directly proportional to their distance from us.

This means that the space between us and all distant galaxies is expanding.

Thus, Einstein's (initial) view that our Universe has been eternally stable in the location of matter must be false. No surprise that he referred to his early view as his "greatest blunder."

Do galaxies moves away from the sun by red shift?

Galaxies that are moving away from the sun are red shifted, that is the light from them looks more red to us that it is when it is emitted. This is due to the speed of the galaxy moving away from which in effect stretches out the wavelengths of the light. Red shift is not the method by which galaxies move away from the sun, rather, it is a consequence of it.

What is a Doppler red shift and a Doppler blue shift?

A Doppler red-shift is a shift in recognizable features of a star's spectrum from

the wavelengths where we know they belong toward longer wavelengths. Such

a shift can be caused by the star's moving away from us, and that's how it's

interpreted when astronomers see it.

What does Cosmological red shift mean?

Cosmological redshift is the shift in stellar spectrum due the space within our Universe expanding since the time of the Big Bang. It is isotropic, which could only happen if the Universe were expanding -- if it was spinning apart, the red shift would be different in different directions.

The age of our Universe, as measured by (1) the inverse of the Hubble Constant, (2) the ratio of long-lived isotopes, and (3) the age of the oldest known stars; is all consistent with each other. In addition, "old" galaxies are seen close to us but not far from us -- consistent with a Universe that has a definite beginning.

This interpretation is incorrect in that the universe is not expanding. Hubble data is used as the basis for this interpretation, even though Hubble did not concur or support expansion as the cause of the redshift.

The so-called cosmological redshift is a measure of the centrifugal attraction on the body.

The redshift is basically the ratio of v/c where v is the gravitational velocity of the body and c is the speed of light and v/c=cos(beta) where beta is the angle of the velocity of the body compared to the gravitational radial direction.

This is an unknown principle of nature in that Newton and Einstein did not consider the vector energy in their theories. Energy is a quaternion quantity.

Newton and Einstein only considered the scalar energy Es= -GmM/r and did not consider the vector energy mcV, for a total quaternion energy E= -GmM/r + mcV.

This vector energy is the source of the centrifugal force and makes irrelevant Einstein's "Cosmological Constant" and today's so-called "Dark Energy".

Physics still has not recognized this and clings to the expanding Universe. The Universe is not expanding and the Cosmological redshift is the measure of equilibrium between the centripetal (center seeking) gravitational force and the centrifugal (center fleeing) vector force.

The red shift of a star means that?

ones moving away from us

Above is the typical Doppler Explanation. Of course, the star could be even still relative to us, when you consider the gravity hole (as an explanation for the red shift).

What are the observations that tell us that the universe is changing?

Mainly that galaxies that are very far away (i.e., from the distant past) look different to galaxies that are near-by (from the more recent past).

How the spectrum shift of the dark line supports theory that universe began from a very small point?

1.the observed wavelength of the

dark line from the distant galaxy

has increased

2.therefore the distant galaxy must

be moving away from the Earth

suggesting the Universe is

3.expanding outwards from a small

initial point

Why is red shift and blue shift important to the earth?

Redshift or blueshift is a change in the frequency of the light you receive, compared to the frequency at which it was emitted. A redshift is a reduction in frequency; this basically means that the object that emits the light is moving away from you.

What does the amount of red or blue shift determine?

Red Shifting happens when an object is moving away from us. The red shifting we observe when looking at distant galaxies over time tells us that they are moving away from us; the Universe is expanding.

Blue shifting would happen in the opposite scenario. You can see blue shifting if you looked at the outer perimeter of any Galaxy as since they are constantly spinning, one side will always be heading towards you...to explain this further:

Draw a dot on the outer-edge of the frisbee. Now have the frisbee spinning in front of you counter-clockwise. For each rotation, the dot is moving towards you. That will be a blue shift. Now since the Universe is expanding, the frisbee itself is also movign away from you -- that is a red shift.

Explain why some stars in the milky way galaxy have a blue shift Doppler effect and other stars in the milky way have a red shift Doppler?

A blue-shift means an object is moving towards us, a red-shift means it is moving away from us. Blue-shift and red-shift are changes in frequency of the light we receive, due to the relative movement. This is called the Doppler effect.
