Relativity
Gravitational Redshift Calculator
Compute the observed frequency of light or electromagnetic radiation emitted near a massive object, accounting for gravitational redshift predicted by General Relativity. Essential for astrophysics, pulsar timing, and GPS system design.
Fill in the required fields to see your result.
Relativity
Lorentz Transformation Calculator
Transforms the spacetime coordinates (x, t) of an event from one inertial reference frame to another moving at relativistic velocity. Used in special relativity to reconcile observations made by different observers.
