Classical Aberration And Obliquation

Abstract

This is the first of several monographs to be devoted to the optics of accelerated systems. They are being published for the benefit of those who may wish to have another way of looking at kineoptical problems, and also to demonstrate that the laws of optics are unwavering in their support of the view that extragalactic redshifts need not be velocity doppler shifts nor cosmological recession shifts. In the latter context the first few monographs of the series may be viewed as providing a basis for the demonstration to be given in a latter monograph.
