Inside the Cosmic Dispersive Prism

Authors: Frank H. Makinson

The universe has the characteristics of a dispersive prism with areas having different indexes of refraction. A material with a varying index of refraction can have areas that produce magnification, reflection, refraction and alter other characteristics of electromagnetic waves over distance. Radio astronomers have identified that electromagnetic waves have to travel through extensive regions of plasma. The interaction of electromagnetic waves in a plasma can produce heterodyne products. These products can mimic redshift, blueshift and produce a prodigious amount of radio noise which can be referred to as cosmic static.
