  2. Doppler effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_effect

    [1] [2] [3] The Doppler effect is named after the physicist Christian Doppler, who described the phenomenon in 1842. A common example of Doppler shift is the change of pitch heard when a vehicle sounding a horn approaches and recedes from an observer. Compared to the emitted frequency, the received frequency is higher during the approach ...

  3. Gravitational redshift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_redshift

    The GPS satellite gravitational blueshift velocity equivalent is less than 0.2 m/s, which is negligible compared to the actual Doppler shift resulting from its orbital velocity. In astronomical objects with strong gravitational fields the redshift can be much greater; for example, light from the surface of a white dwarf is gravitationally ...

  4. Relativistic Doppler effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativistic_Doppler_effect

    Doppler shift with source moving at an arbitrary angle with respect to the line between source and receiver. The analysis used in section Relativistic longitudinal Doppler effect can be extended in a straightforward fashion to calculate the Doppler shift for the case where the inertial motions of the source and receiver are at any specified angle.

  5. Dopplergraph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dopplergraph

    The word "dopplergraph" is a combination of the words doppler and photograph. Dopplergraphs are two-dimensional records of variations in the doppler shift in light intensity. Dopplergraphs do not need to be a record of the shift of visible light, but of any radiated wave, which includes electromagnetic waves and acoustic waves. [1]

  6. Doppler radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_radar

    Doppler Effect: Change of wavelength and frequency caused by motion of the source. The formula for radar Doppler shift is the same as that for reflection of light by a moving mirror. [3] There is no need to invoke Albert Einstein's theory of special relativity, because all observations are made in the same frame of reference. [4]

  7. Doppler spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_spectroscopy

    Doppler spectroscopy (also known as the radial-velocity method, or colloquially, the wobble method) is an indirect method for finding extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs from radial-velocity measurements via observation of Doppler shifts in the spectrum of the planet's parent star. As of November 2022, about 19.5% of known extrasolar planets ...

    Donovan Mitchell scored 33 points, Evan Mobley had 26 points and the streaking Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Denver Nuggets 149-135 on Friday night for their sixth straight win. Cleveland set a ...

  9. Fading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fading

    The coherence time of the channel is related to a quantity known as the Doppler spread of the channel. When a user (or reflectors in its environment) is moving, the user's velocity causes a shift in the frequency of the signal transmitted along each signal path. This phenomenon is known as the Doppler shift. Signals traveling along different ...
