There is one implication of the presented model which I would like to address the readers. When the energy of a photon decreases stepping away from the source (object) of gravitation (due to dilatation of space, and a decrease in time elongation), it also implies that the photon loses its energy because it is traveling by curved space i.e. curved radius. I have deliberately mentioned only space so that the image is easier to depict and to follow the logic. The decrease of energy of the photon is an indicator of how much space is curved. Of course, because the pace of time is also changing (gravitational time dilation), the time is also curved, and it contributes much more to the energy decrease. By radial traveling in a flat space-time (i.e. space-time far from the mass object) the photon would not lose its energy. The intensity of the decrease of photon energy is an indicator of how much our space is curved and how much our time is curved. The loss of energy of photon correlates with the strength of space-time curvature tensor. The more is the space-time curved, the more intense will be the loss in energy of the photon. To be more precise, the intensity of the change of photon energy is an indicator of space-time curvature (intensity of gravitational redshift and the intensity of gravitational blue shift).

Abstract


There is one implication of the presented model which I would like to address the readers. When the energy of a photon decreases stepping away from the source (object) of gravitation (due to dilatation of space, and a decrease in time elongation), it also implies that the photon loses its energy because it is traveling by curved space i.e. curved radius. I have deliberately mentioned only space so that the image is easier to depict and to follow the logic. The decrease of energy of the photon is an indicator of how much space is curved. Of course, because the pace of time is also changing (gravitational time dilation), the time is also curved, and it contributes much more to the energy decrease. By radial traveling in a flat space-time (i.e. space-time far from the mass object) the photon would not lose its energy. The intensity of the decrease of photon energy is an indicator of how much our space is curved and how much our time is curved. The loss of energy of photon correlates with the strength of space-time curvature tensor. The more is the space-time curved, the more intense will be the loss in energy of the photon. To be more precise, the intensity of the change of photon energy is an indicator of space-time curvature (intensity of gravitational redshift and the intensity of gravitational blue shift).
