The equations in your program are wrong. The
red curve shouldn't be (1+v/c), it should be
c(c+v)/(c^2-da)

How about this. When you aggregate large numbers of
photons, the results are the macroscopic behaviour
that we observe. That is accurately described by
classical wave theory so it is a constraint on your
theory that it reduces to that classical behaviour
in the limit of large numbers of photons.

Because the Doppler shift of a spectral line must
be by the same factor as the change in time between
pulses modulated onto it.

Me. You were talking of rigid bullets with serrations,
I introduced the idea of the coil that can change length
to get you round the error produced by your rigidity.

No, I'm just disappointed you have so little knowledge of

In any realistic ballistic theory they must. You say
they don't in your alternative to Ritz's ballistic

Yes, it is pure crank behaviour and I thought you
were better than that. You should take it to some
alt-newtheory group, it has no place here.

You already accepted some time ago that stars can
have intrisic variations. The maths in your program
is wrong. Correct the maths, your program will then
accurately predict the amount of intensity change
due to ballistic theory and then you can subtract
that from the observations to get the intrinsic
variablity. That would be good science.

No you are deliberately rejecting the point. The
Doppler shift of a carrier MUST be the same as
that of the modulation. When you reject that, your
ideas part company with the real world and become
fantasy inappropriate for sci.. groups. Analogies
cannot contradict what we know, they only aid
conveying understanding to others and sometimes
allow us to extrapolate from known situations
into more extreme conditions where testing is
impractical. Your attempts so far contradict basic
science.

Then buy a book on physics and learn it if you
are so vague on the subject, it is a basic
under-graduate subject.

As you said "1000000000000000000hz is no stranger
than 0.0000000000000001hz."

In that case the speed of light is independent
of the speed of the source.

Impossible.

No I do understand the model and I'm telling you the

No, correct application of ballistic theory, not
your fantasy world in which maths doesn't apply.

No, we know we are seeing ONE image. There is a single
sine wave in the FM. If we were seeing multiple images
there would be beats in the pulse rate between the
pulse repetition frequencies (standard acronym: PRF)
emitted at different parts of the orbit. A Fourier
transform of pulses would give the red curve shown
here for enough overlap to produce a triple image
during part of the orbit:
http://www.georgedishman.f2s.com/Henri/Ritz_Doppler_3.png
and the PRF spectrum would alternate between one line
and three. That would be slightly beyond critical
distance. For multiple images, you get more lines
until with the several hundred that J1909-3744 should
produce they would become a band spectrum with a sharp
low frequency cutoff. Reverse transforming that would
give pink noise, a totally random pulse pattern with
no discernible timing other than a maximum gap between
pulses. What is seen is one line at 31.2mHz and a
second harmonic which if my way of estimating from the
eccentricity is right would be around 7nHz. This is how
the PRF varies over the orbit:
http://www.georgedishman.f2s.com/Henri/PRF_J1909-3744.png
We are only seeing one image.

Now try it for a single image with unification.

Do some studying Henry, find out how Roemer measured
the speed of light.
