Re: The correct Doppler formula falsifies relativity

This is the correct Doppler formula for all moving

If the observer and the source are moving directly
away from each other, the velocity is v > 0, and v < 0
if they are approaching.

Consider now, the relativistic Doppler formula

       f_r' = sqrt((1 - v/c)/(1 + v/c)) f

We can expand both equations, f' and f_r',  in their
respective power series until any arbitrary order, and
see the ratio f'/f_r is

        f'/f_r = 1 - x^3/3 - x^5/5 + x^6 /18  - x^7/7 + ...

        where  x = v/c.

So, in any experimental test for that ratio, you'd have
to deal with measurement accuracies that could at
least make the term x^3/3 significant.

I think you must have left out the part where you actually derived the
so-called correct Doppler formula from first principles. Other than
that, your post was fine.
