Doppler shifting of a distant light source in a Schwarzschild gravitational field
Abstract
Correlations characterizing chromatic properties of a gravitational lens for different cases of reciprocal disposition of the observer, the source and the gravitating body have been analysed. The obtained results may be used directly for the experimental check-up of General Relativity and for the discovery of gravitating bodies in the Universe.
