- The light from a heated atomic gas is shifted in frequency because of the random thermal motion of light-emitting atoms toward or away from an observer. Estimate the fractional Doppler shift (f/f0), assuming that light of frequency f0 is emitted in the rest frame of each atom, that the light-emitting atoms are iron atoms in a star at temperature 6000 K, and that the atoms are moving relative to an observer with the mean speed =8kBTm Must we use the relativistic Doppler shift formulas f=f01/c1/c for this calculation?
