Symmetry in Photon Momentum Changes:

The equation Δρ = −Δρ is possible due to the relationship Δρ = h/Δλ = h/-Δλ, indicating a fundamental symmetry between redshift and blueshift phenomena. These equations describe how changes in photon momentum (Δρ) correspond to changes in wavelength (Δλ). The constant 'h' represents Planck's constant, suggesting that the magnitude of the momentum change is inversely proportional to the magnitude of the wavelength change. Furthermore, when a photon traverses an external gravitational well, it follows an arc path. As a result, momentum exchanges gradually increase as the photon enters the influence of the massive object, leading to blueshift. Similarly, momentum exchanges gradually decrease as the photon exits the influence of the massive object, resulting in redshift equivalent to blueshift occurrences.

Mathematical Formulations:

These equations can be expressed as follows:

Equation for Photon Energy:

  • E = hf = hc/λ

This equation relates the energy E of a photon to its frequency f and wavelength λ, where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light. It demonstrates how changes in wavelength correspond to changes in energy while maintaining the total energy constant.

Equation for Energy Change due to Frequency Change:

  • ΔE = hΔf

This equation represents the change in energy ΔE of a photon due to a change in frequency Δf, where h is Planck's constant. It highlights how alterations in frequency lead to variations in energy.

Equation for Momentum Change due to Wavelength Change:

  • Δρ = h/Δλ

This equation represents the change in momentum Δρ of a photon due to a change in wavelength Δλ, where h is Planck's constant. It illustrates the inverse relationship between changes in wavelength and momentum.

By considering these equations together, we observe that changes in energy and momentum are intricately linked in photon interactions with gravitational fields. The mathematical formulations provided in the paper demonstrate how variations in wavelength and frequency lead to compensatory changes in energy and momentum, ensuring consistency with energy conservation principles.

Conclusion:

The effective momentum changes of a photon in an external gravitational field can be described as zero (=0), as outlined in the concept of symmetry in photon momentum changes. This symmetry, represented by Δρ = -Δρ, illustrates how changes in photon momentum due to gravitational effects are symmetrically balanced, resulting in an overall equilibrium. As photons traverse through external gravitational fields, such as the gravitational well of a massive object, they experience momentum exchanges that lead to phenomena like blueshift and redshift. These exchanges occur as the photon follows an arc path, with momentum gradually increasing upon entering the influence of the massive object and gradually decreasing upon exiting it. Consequently, the net effect of these momentum exchanges is zero, ensuring conservation of momentum in the interaction between photons and external gravitational fields.

Introduction:

The interaction of photons with external gravitational fields constitutes a fundamental aspect of astrophysics and cosmology, shaping our understanding of the universe's dynamics. In the paper titled "Distinguishing Photon Interactions: Source Well vs. External Fields," the complexities of these interactions are explored, laying the groundwork for further investigation. This introduction provides a comprehensive overview of the additional insights presented herein, which offer a detailed examination of photon behaviour under the influence of gravitational forces. By delving into the symmetry of changes in photon momentum, the equivalence of redshift and blueshift, and the conservation principles governing photon energy, this analysis expands our comprehension of how photons respond to gravitational environments. Through mathematical formulations and conceptual discussions, this introduction sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the intricate relationship between photons and gravitational fields, enhancing our grasp of the underlying physics at play.

Mathematical Presentations:

Symmetry in Photon Momentum Changes:

Equation: Δρ = −Δρ

This equation represents the symmetry observed in the changes of photon momentum, where the change in momentum (Δρ) is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction for redshift and blueshift phenomena.

Relationship between Momentum Change and Wavelength Change:

Equation: Δρ = h/Δλ = h/-Δλ

These equations express the relationship between changes in photon momentum (Δρ) and changes in wavelength (Δλ). The constant 'h' represents Planck's constant, indicating that the magnitude of the momentum change is inversely proportional to the magnitude of the wavelength change.

Equation Relating Energy, Frequency, and Wavelength:

Equation: E = hf = h(c/λ)

This equation relates the energy (E) of a photon to its frequency (f) and wavelength (λ), where 'h' is Planck's constant and 'c' is the speed of light. It demonstrates how changes in wavelength correspond to changes in energy while maintaining the total energy constant.

Energy Conservation Equation for Redshift:

Equation: (E - ΔE) = hc/(λ+Δλ) = hc/(λ-Δλ) = (E + ΔE)

This equation represents energy conservation in the context of redshift, where there is a change (Δλ) in the photon's wavelength. It shows that the change in energy (ΔE) due to redshift is compensated by the corresponding change in wavelength, resulting in a total energy that remains constant.

Constancy of the Speed of Light Equation:

Equation: c = fλ

This equation represents the relationship between the speed of light (c), frequency (f), and wavelength (λ). It illustrates that even when the wavelength varies, the product of frequency and wavelength (fλ) remains constant, ensuring the constancy of the speed of light.

These mathematical presentations provide a quantitative framework for understanding the principles discussed in the quoted text, including symmetry in momentum changes, conservation of energy, and the constancy of the speed of light.

Discussion:

The discussion presented in the quoted text delves into the intricate interplay between photons and external gravitational fields, shedding light on several key concepts and their implications.

Firstly, the symmetry observed in the changes of photon momentum (Δρ) is highlighted, where Δρ = -Δρ signifies a fundamental symmetry between redshift and blueshift phenomena. This symmetry, rooted in the conservation principles of momentum, underscores the intricate balance at play in photon interactions with gravitational fields. By acknowledging this symmetry, researchers gain a deeper understanding of how photons respond to gravitational influences, whether they are experiencing redshift or blueshift.

Moreover, the mathematical presentation elucidates how changes in photon wavelength (Δλ) correspond to alterations in photon momentum and energy. The equations presented, such as E = hf = h(c/λ), provide a quantitative framework for understanding the relationship between photon energy, frequency, and wavelength. Through these equations, it becomes apparent that while changes in wavelength may result in shifts in photon energy, the total energy remains conserved, underscoring a fundamental principle of physics.

Furthermore, the discussion emphasizes the constancy of the speed of light (c) despite variations in wavelength. This constancy, rooted in the relationship c = fλ, elucidates how the interplay between frequency and wavelength maintains a consistent speed of light, even in the presence of gravitational influences. Understanding this fundamental property of light is crucial for interpreting observations in astrophysics and cosmology, where gravitational fields often play a significant role.

Overall, the discussion provides valuable insights into the complexities of photon interactions with external gravitational fields. By exploring concepts such as symmetry in momentum changes, conservation of energy, and the constancy of the speed of light, researchers can deepen their understanding of the fundamental principles governing the behaviour of photons in gravitational environments. These insights not only contribute to our theoretical understanding but also have practical implications for interpreting astronomical observations and phenomena.

Conclusion:

The discussion presented offers a comprehensive exploration of photon interactions with external gravitational fields, illuminating fundamental principles and their mathematical representations. By examining the symmetry in photon momentum changes, it becomes evident that redshift and blueshift phenomena exhibit a symmetric relationship, encapsulated by Δρ = -Δρ. This symmetry underscores the intricate balance in photon behaviour under gravitational influences.

Furthermore, the mathematical presentations elucidate the relationships between momentum changes, wavelength alterations, and energy conservation. Equations relating energy, frequency, and wavelength provide a quantitative understanding of how changes in photon properties manifest while preserving total energy. The analysis of energy conservation in the context of redshift highlights the compensatory nature of changes in energy and wavelength, maintaining a constant total energy.

Additionally, the constancy of the speed of light, emphasized through the relationship c = fλ, underscores a fundamental property of light unaffected by gravitational fields. This constancy serves as a cornerstone for interpreting observations in astrophysics and cosmology, facilitating our understanding of the universe's dynamics.

In conclusion, the insights provided deepen our understanding of the complexities of photon interactions with gravitational fields.

This additional description provided here enhances the paper titled, 'Distinguishing Photon Interactions: Source Well vs. External Fields' by providing a more detailed explanation of the principles discussed. It expands upon the concepts of energy expenditure, gravitational redshift, and momentum exchange in a clear and concise manner. Additionally, the inclusion of mathematical formulations further strengthens the paper by providing quantitative insights into the phenomena under investigation.

This study delves into the intricate interactions of photons within gravitational fields, discerning between encounters with source gravitational wells and external gravitational fields. When photons escape source gravitational wells, such as those of stars or black holes, they expend energy, leading to gravitational redshift. Conversely, when traversing external gravitational fields, photons maintain their inherent energy while experiencing bending paths due to momentum exchange. Through mathematical formulations, we elucidate these principles, offering insights into astrophysical dynamics and gravitational physics.

When a photon or wave escapes a gravitational well, such as the gravitational field of a massive object like a star or a black hole, it expends energy in the process. This energy expenditure, resulting from a change in energy ΔE, follows the Planck equation:

  • ΔE = hΔf

It's crucial to note that:

a. This alteration in photon frequency (Δf) corresponds to a change in photon wavelength (1/Δλ), leading to a redshift of the photon wavelength.

b. The change in photon wavelength (1/Δλ) is directly proportional to the photon's distance from its source gravitational well. This distance remains constant throughout the photon's journey, even when traversing through the gravitational field of external massive bodies like planets or galaxies. However, instead of experiencing energy variations in strong gravitational fields, the photons maintain their inherent energy (E = Eg) through the equation (Eg = E + ΔE = E − ΔE), while undergoing gravitational redshift due to (ΔE = hΔf).

c. In addition to undergoing gravitational redshift, photons also experience redshift due to cosmic expansion, but this occurs only when they enter dark energy-dominated intergalactic space.

Through these mathematical formulations, we elucidate the principles governing photon interactions in source gravitational wells versus external gravitational fields, thereby enhancing our understanding of gravitational physics in astrophysical contexts.

Introduction

The study of phase shift in wave phenomena stands as a fundament in physics and engineering, playing an indispensable role in various applications. Phase shift refers to the phenomenon where a periodic waveform or signal appears displaced in time or space relative to a reference waveform or signal. This displacement, measured in degrees or radians, offers profound insights into the intricate behaviour of waves [1].

Phase shift analysis is instrumental in comprehending wave behaviour and is widely employed in fields such as telecommunications, signal processing, and acoustics, where precise timing and synchronization are paramount. The ability to quantify and manipulate phase shift is pivotal in advancing our understanding of wave phenomena and harnessing them for practical applications.

This research is dedicated to exploring the fundamental principles of phase shift, unravelling its complexities, and establishing a clear framework for analysis. It places a spotlight on essential entities, including waveforms, reference points, frequencies, and units, which are critical in conducting precise phase shift calculations. The presentation of key equations further enhances our grasp of the relationships between phase angle, time delay, frequency, and wavelength, illuminating the intricate mechanisms governing wave behaviour [2].

Moreover, this research introduces the concept of time distortion, which encapsulates the temporal shifts induced by a 1° phase shift. This concept is especially relevant when considering phase shift effects in real-world scenarios, particularly in precision instruments like clocks and radar systems.

In addition to phase shift, this research addresses the topic of infinitesimal wave energy loss and its close association with phase shift. It provides a set of equations designed to calculate energy loss under various conditions, taking into account factors such as phase shift, time distortion, and source frequencies. These equations expand our understanding of how phase shift influences wave energy, emphasizing its practical implications.

In summary, this research paper endeavours to offer a comprehensive exploration of phase shift analysis, bridging the gap between theoretical foundations and practical applications. By elucidating the complex connections between phase shift, time, frequency, and energy, this study enriches our comprehension of wave behaviour across a spectrum of scientific and engineering domains (Figure 1).

Results

This section introduces two key concepts that deepen our understanding of wave behaviour and its practical implications: Time distortion and infinitesimal loss of wave energy. These concepts focus on the temporal aspects of phase shift and offer valuable insights into the energy dynamics of wave phenomena.

Time distortion

The concept of time distortion (Δt) is a pivotal bridge between phase shift analysis and precise time measurements, particularly in applications where accuracy is paramount. Time distortion represents the temporal shift that occurs as a consequence of a 1° phase shift in a wave.

Consider a 5 MHz wave as an example. A 1° phase shift on this wave corresponds to a time shift of approximately 555 picoseconds (ps). In other words, when a wave experiences a 1° phase shift, specific events or points on the waveform appear displaced in time by this minuscule but significant interval.

Time distortion is a crucial consideration in various fields, including telecommunications, navigation systems, and scientific instruments. Understanding and quantifying this phenomenon enables scientists and engineers to make precise time measurements and synchronize systems accurately [6].

Infinitesimal loss of wave energy

In addition to time distortion, this research delves into the intricacies of infinitesimal wave energy loss (ΔE) concerning phase shift. It provides a framework for quantifying the diminutive energy losses experienced by waves as a result of various factors, with phase shift being a central element.

The equations presented in this research allow for the calculation of ΔE under different scenarios. These scenarios consider parameters such as phase shift, time distortion, and source frequencies. By understanding how phase shift contributes to energy loss, researchers and engineers gain valuable insights into the practical implications of this phenomenon.

Infinitesimal wave energy loss has implications in fields ranging from quantum mechanics to telecommunications. It underlines the importance of precision in wave-based systems and highlights the trade-offs between manipulating phase for various applications and conserving wave energy.

In summary, this section serves as an introduction to the intricate concepts of time distortion and infinitesimal loss of wave energy. These concepts provide a more comprehensive picture of wave behaviour, offering practical tools for precise measurements and energy considerations in diverse scientific and engineering domains [7,8].

Phase shift calculations and example

To illustrate the practical application of the derived equations of phase shift T(deg), an example calculation is presented:

Phase Shift Example 1:1° Phase Shift on a 5 MHz Wave.

The calculation demonstrates how to determine the time shift caused by a 1° phase shift on a 5 MHz wave. It involves substituting the known frequency (f=5 MHz) into the equation for T(deg).

T(deg)=(1/f)/360; f=5 MHz (5,000,000 Hz)

Now, plug in the frequency (f) into the equation for T(deg).

T(deg)={1/(5,000,000 Hz)}/360

Calculate the value of T(deg).

T(deg) ≈ 555 picoseconds (ps)

So, a 1° phase shift on a 5 MHz wave corresponds to a time shift of approximately 555 picoseconds (ps).

Loss of wave energy calculations and example

Loss of wave energy example 1: To illustrate the practical applications of the derived equations of loss of wave energy, example calculation is presented.

Oscillation frequency 5 MHz, when 0° Phase shift in frequency

This calculation demonstrate how to determine the energy (E1) and infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE) of an oscillatory wave, whose frequency (f1) is 5 MHz, and Phase shift T(deg)=0° (i.e. no phase shift).

To determine the energy (E1) and infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE) of an oscillatory wave with a frequency (f1) of 5 MHz and a phase shift T(deg) of 0°, use the following equations:

Calculate the energy (E1) of the oscillatory wave:

E1=hf1

Where, h is Planck's constant ≈ 6.626 × 10-34 J·s, f1 is the frequency of the wave, which is 5 MHz (5 × 106 Hz). E1={6.626 × 10-34 J·s} × (5 × 106 Hz)=3.313 × 10-27 J

So, the energy (E1) of the oscillatory wave is approximately 3.313 × 10-27 Joules. To determine the infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE), use the formula

ΔE=hfΔt

Where, h is Planck's constant {6.626 × 10-34 J·s}, f1 is the frequency of the wave (5 × 106 Hz).

Δt is the infinitesimal time interval, and in this case, since there's no phase shift, T(deg)=0°, Δt=0.

ΔE={6.626 × 10-34 J·s} × (5 × 106 Hz) × 0=0 (Joules)

The infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE) is 0 joules because there is no phase shift, meaning there is no energy loss during this specific time interval.

Resolved, the energy (E₁) of the oscillatory wave with a frequency of 5 MHz and no phase shift is approximately 3.313 × 10-27 Joules.

There is no infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE) during this specific time interval due to the absence of a phase shift.

Loss of wave energy example 2: To illustrate the practical applications of the derived equations of loss of wave energy, example calculation is presented.

Original oscillation frequency 5 MHz, when 1° Phase shift compared to original frequency.

This calculation demonstrate how to determine the energy (E2) and infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE) of another oscillatory wave, compared to the original frequency (f1) of 5 MHz and Phase shift T(deg)=1°, resulting own frequency (f2).

To determine the energy (E2) and infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE) of another oscillatory wave with a 1° phase shift compared to the original frequency (f1) of 5 MHz, and to find the resulting frequency (f2) of the wave, follow these steps:

Calculate the energy (E2) of the oscillatory wave with the new frequency (f2) using the Planck's energy formula.

E2=hf2

Where, h is Planck's constant ≈ 6.626 × 10-34 J·s, f2 is the new frequency of the wave.

Calculate the change in frequency (Δf2) due to the 1° phase shift: Δf2=(1°/360°) × f1

Where, 1° is the phase shift, 360° is the full cycle of phase.

f₁ is the original frequency, which is 5 MHz (5 × 106 Hz). Δf2=(1/360) × (5

Now that you have Δf2, you can calculate the new frequency (f2): f2=f1-Δf2

f2=(5 × 106 Hz)-(13,888.89 Hz) ≈ 4,986,111.11 Hz

So, the resulting frequency (f2) of the oscillatory wave with a 1° phase shift is approximately 4,986,111.11 Hz.

Calculate the energy (E2) using the new frequency (f2).

E2=hf2

E2 ≈ (6.626 × 10-34 J·s) × (4,986,111.11 Hz) ≈ 3.313 × 10-27 J

So, the energy (E2) of the oscillatory wave with a frequency of approximately 4,986,111.11 Hz and a 1° phase shift is also approximately 3.313 × 10-27 Joules.

To determine the infinitesimal loss of energy (&Delt

Where, h is Planck's constant (6.626 × 10-34 J·s), f2 is the new frequency (approximately) 4,986,111.11 Hz.

Δt is the infinitesimal time interval, which corresponds to the phase shift.

Known that the time shift resulting from a 1° phase shift is approximately 555 picoseconds (ps)

So, Δt=555 ps=555 × 10-12 s. Now, calculate ΔE.

ΔE=(6.626 × 10-34 J·s) × (4,986,111.11 Hz) × (555 × 10-12 s) ≈ 1.848 × 10-27 J

So, the infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE) due to the 1° phase shift is approximately 1.848 × 10-27 Joules.

Resolved, the energy (E2) of this oscillatory wave is approximately 3.313 × 10-27 Joules. Resolved, the infinitesimal loss of energy (ΔE) due to the 1° phase shift is approximately

1.848 × 10-27 Joules.

Resolved, the resulting frequency (f2) of the oscillatory wave with a 1° phase shift is approximately 4,986,111.11 Hz.
