		Doppler effect change in the wavelength (or frequency) of energy in the form of waves, e.g., sound or light, as a result of motion of either the source or the receiver of the waves; the effect is named for the Austrian scientist Christian Doppler, who demonstrated the effect for sound.
		The Doppler effect in reflected radio waves is employed in radar to sense the velocity of the object under surveillance.
		The Doppler effect is responsible for the red shifts of distant galaxies, and also of quasars, and thus provides the best evidence for the expansion of the universe, as described by Hubble's law.

	Doppler, Christian
		He discovered of the Doppler effect, relative to the variation of the acoustic waves when they are under a movement effect.
		Doppler explains correctly the physic phenomenon, underlining that when the waves of the sound participates in the movement of the origin, they reach our ear in shorter intervals, and when it participates in the movement but going away from the observer, the intervals are longer.
		Doppler explain a similar effect that would happen with luminous waves, but his explanation wasn't very exact; but this uncompleted theory was finished properly by Fizeaua hundred of years later, and it was very important for astronomy and for the development of the theory of relativity.

	C-ship: The Doppler Shift
		From Doppler's formula, we can expect the frequency of sound approaching the train to be shifted to 10% higher pitch, and sounds receding shifted to 10% lower pitch, roughly the difference between two adjacent white keys on a piano keyboard.
		The reason we notice the Doppler shift of sound but not of light is simply the consequence of the tremendous difference in the speed of sound and the speed of light.
		The Doppler shift predicted by classical physics is shown in red and the correct prediction of special relativity in green.

	Fetal Doppler Facts.org - What is a fetal doppler?
		The fetal doppler heartbeat monitor is a non-invasive diagnostic instrument used to detect and measure the fetal heart rate.
		A fetal doppler measures the fetal heart rate by emitting and receiving continuous ultrasonic sound waves and emitting the change or shift in pitch frequency of these sound waves.
		Each fetal doppler monitor uses a transducer or probe of varying MGHZ (millions of cycles per second), usually 2 or 3, containing piezoelectric crystals which send short sound pulses into the directed area of the body.

	The Doppler Effect
		A similar effect (Doppler Shift for light) can also be used to determine the speed of a star relative to the earth.
		The red shift of the star's spectrum indicates that the distance between an observed star and the earth may be increasing.

		Christian Doppler was the Austrian physicist who discovered the effect that bears his name.
		These were pulled to and fro in front of a number of other musicians who were able to detect the changes in pitch, confirming Doppler's equations.
		Doppler also suggested that his 'principle' could be applied to any type of wave motion, such as light, and in 1848 Armand Fizeau showed that shifts in the spectral lines of stars could be observed and ascribed to the Doppler effect.
