Relativistic Doppler Effect

Ok, time for some edumecation.

Last time, we explored how Einstein derived his famous equation, E = mc2 See: http://soi.blogspot.ca/2013/06/einsteins...ation.html

One of those equations was taken for granted.
γB+ = ½ E(1 + (V/c)cosΦ)(1 – V2/c2)-½

At the time that Einstein published his papers in 1905, it had been derived by others, so he didn't have to do it.

In this blog, that equation is derived from first principles.

THE HORROR

Oh my, that brought up terrible memories from school. Terrible, terrible memories that I thougth I had bundled up just nicely in a steel crate locked deep down in the lowest depths of the catacombs of my psyche...

You should put a "hide" thingy around that before someone else gets a heart attack. And a disclaimer. Jesus man.

Hmmm, no. There are people who are interested in bettering themselves. Heck, the internet is awashed with ignoramuses spewing their ignorance. The least I can do is to provide some real learning for those who want it. It's been part of the US myth that learning is for the intellectual elite. And so we have a party dedicated to put creationism in the science class, a Republican sitting on the science committee, who knows sweetfuckall about science, doesn't believe in evolution or global warming, yet has the power to decide which scientist gets a grant. This country is in serious trouble. Pardon me if I want to bring some light in this pathetic world.
