Proposal of a practical laboratory work on Optical Doppler Shift in the university classroom

Practical teaching experiments on optical Doppler effect are not a simple task, not only by the design but also because the experiment itself have many issues. The main problem is to produce a smooth movement of the light source, for little imperfections, of the order of the wavelength, result in im...
