Static-emitter redshift in a de Sitter patch

ID: static-emitter-redshift-in-a-de-sitter-patch

For stationary emitter and observer in the same static patch, repeated rays between fixed radii have the same coordinate travel delay. Since a stationary clock obeys , the received-to-emitted proper-period ratio is . At a central observer and emitter radius , this is . Holding an emitter stationary requires unbounded proper acceleration as it approaches the horizon; the limiting redshift formula does not describe a timelike static worldline on the horizon itself.
