Abstract: | Attention is given to an interesting effect associated with light emitted in the forward direction by a source circulating in an equatorial plane around a highly collapsed object or a black hole. The emitted light received by a distant observer will exhibit a blue shift. The process of matter accretion by the highly collapsed object or black hole and the accompanying light emission in the forward direction is considered. |
