Why would that cause red shift?
- tycho-newman 3y agoLosing energy shifts the frequency of your emissions towards red. Basically, cooling down is the same thing as moving farther away from an inertial reference point.
- mr_mitm 3y agoAre you thinking of thermal radiation? And what does losing mass have to do with cooling down? We observe redshift in the spectrum. Hydrogen emits radiation in very specific frequencies, which are redshifted. This cannot be explained by losing mass, heat or energy.
