In the transverse Doppler effect, the observer in the referential K’ sees that the light propagates parallel to the y' axis, in such a way that θ' = 90◦. The relative speed of the source emitting light of frequency ν is βc (parallel to the x' axis). Calculate the frequency ν' measured by the observer in K’
