Relativistic Doppler Effect and the Principle of Relativity

Open publisher page 11 citations

Abstract

The frequency shifts predicted by the `relativistic' Doppler e#ect are derived in the photon picture of light. It turns out that, in general, the results do not depend exclusively on the relative velocity between observer and light source.
