Decoding quasars: gravitationally redshifted spectral lines !
Nimisha G. Kantharia (National Centre for Radio Astrophysics, Tata, Institute of Fundamental Research, Pune)

TL;DR
This paper presents evidence that quasar spectral lines are primarily gravitationally redshifted within the quasar system, challenging the traditional view that redshifts are solely cosmological and suggesting quasars contain matter inside black holes' ergospheres.
Contribution
It provides compelling evidence that quasar emission lines originate inside the quasar system and are influenced by gravitational redshift, proposing a paradigm shift in understanding quasar structure and redshift origins.
Findings
Spectral lines arise from matter inside the quasar system.
Redshift variations are due to gravitational redshift contributions.
Existence of matter within black hole ergospheres in quasars.
Abstract
Further investigation of data on quasars, especially in the ultraviolet band, yields an amazingly coherent narrative which we present in this paper. Quasars are characterised by strong continuum emission and redshifted emission and absorption lines which includes the famous Lyman forest. We present irrefutable evidence in support of (1) the entire line spectrum arising in matter located inside the quasar system, (2) the range of redshifts shown by the lines being due to the variable contribution of the gravitational redshift in the observed line velocity, (3) existence of rotating black holes and of matter inside its ergosphere, (4) quasars located within cosmological redshifts , (5) ray bursts being explosive events in a quasar. These results are significant and a game-changer when we realise that the absorbing gas has been postulated to exist along the…
