Passage of Cosmic Photons Over Stellar Limbs

In several preceding papers [1,2,3,4] we have discussed particle and photon propagations through cosmic gravity fields under the new aspect that gravitational field sources are seen by moving masses or photons under relativistically aberrated positions. This causes astonishing effects like the reduction of peculiar motions of stars or a permanent increase of redshifts of photons at their propagations through cosmic space with uniform matter distribution. In this paper here we shall, however, now study under the given new auspices of relativistically displaced gravity sources the passage of photons over the limbs of stellar surfaces and ask whether such photons not only thereby experience the well known and proven Einstein‘ían deflection, but may also be subject to a discrete, asymptotic energy loss which is related to the mass of the touched star and the impact distance of the photon from this star. We shall investigate here this effect and compare it with Einsteinìan expectations.
