Galactic massive BH photon consumption vs Galactic center flux?

In article , Steven Carlip writes: In GR, an observer at rest outside a black hole is accelerating. A nonaccelerating, "inertial" observer is one who is in free fall. This is the relevant reference frame for making sense of energy, and in the inertial observer's reference frame, the CMB is not blue shifted. Thanks for that. Imagine the observer with feet towards the black hole. I can see that the radiation from "above" is not blue- shifted, but what about radiation from "below?" It seems to me that should be blue-shifted. Does the aberration mean the blue-shifted radiation comes from such a small solid angle that it's irrelevant, or am I missing something else? I've pondered this too. Curious about others input. Seems to me that any light coming from below will depend on where you are. If at or below the event horizon, it should be black from below, no light coming upward unless it originated from an object also falling in with you, but further in. That would be red shifted depending on how much further in that other object was. But no light from beyond the hole, just a dark black circle. As you fall in, the circle of black should get larger, and the light from distant stars more red it seems to me (after crossing the event horizon anyway). Is this right? rt |
