Poincare's relativistic Doppler-Fizeau formula

Abstract

We deduce from Poincare's ellipsoidal wavefronts a relativistic Doppler-Fizeau formula that is not the same as 1905 Einstein's one. Longitudinally, Einstein's formula and Poincare's formula are the same. The question of an experimental test is connected with the possibility or the impossibility of directly measuring the relativistic transverse effect. Hasselkamp's 1978 experiment becomes a crucial experiment because Poincare's relativistic kinematics predicts an expansion of sapce directly connected with the Doppler-Fizeau effect for the remote objects.
