 Could you present a list of the 20 or so mechanisms which can cause a red shift. I can only come up with a few.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">From Apeiron Vol. 1, #9-10, pp. 35-44 (1991):

just wondering why Cosmic Plasmas were not mentioned here? do you think they have no conseqence on red shift anomalies? if so why not?

Re the hubble constant units.

The units are in terms of velocity/distance , with velocity measured in kilometers/second, and distance measured in mega parsecs, which is a rather odd collection of units to put into a single equation.

H can be interpreted as a velocity which increases with distance. If we observe a red shift velocity of 70 km/sec, we can infer that the object is one MPc away. If the observed velocity is 140 km/sec, we would expect the distance to be 2 MPc.

To express H in SI units, we have to convert km/sec to meters/sec, giving a value for velocity of 70,000 m/sec.
MPc = Pc x 10^6 times 3.086 x 10^16 m/Pc = 3.086 x 10^22 m

Substituting into the velocity /distance expression, we obtain a Hubble constant of 2.26 x 10^(-18) m/sec/m. This is a bit of a mouthful to bandy about in a spirited discusion, hence the decision to adopt the odd units which are customary.

Note that we can elliminate the "meters" from the expression, leaving a remaining unit of " per second".

As a side note, the reciprical of the Hubble constant is a time length, and works out to be about 14 x 10^9 years. This is sometimes refered to as "The Hubble age of the universe."

explain, in detail your logic here.

and yet Cosmic Plasmas are electromagnetic by nature, and so is light.there on the same plane here!!

Light has neither electricity nor magnetism. Plasmas may emit light, but at normal wavelengths. There is no imaginable physics that would allow plasmas to cause emitted light to shift to longer-than-normal wavelengths.

Or is your imagination better than mine? -|Tom|-
