That's right. We need an entirely new theory.

the BaT is straightforward ..but with many factors to consider.

where the brightness peak goes to inifinity and double imagery commences.

in my demo, it occurs when the first small section of the 'wavefront curves'
becomes vertical..
Incidentally, I have modifeid these for easier understanding of the second
star. I am steadily improving the program.

According to my sawblade photon model, doppler frequency shift is directly
dependent on (c+v)/c

There is NO GR correction.

The clocks are initially given an offset to compensate for their free fall
error. After that, the only required corrections are for clock drift and orbit
variation. The claimed GR error due to orbit eccentricity is really just a
transverse doppler effect.

Nope.
My latest model says that Cepheids are largish stars with neutron stars
orbiting around them at high speed.
The larger the central star, the smaller its rotation speed around the
barycentre.

When I streamline my program I will be able to check real situations with a
little more confidence.

It is nonsense. Light smply loses energy as it travels.
there are otehr reasons for the galactic redshift. Its main cause is that we
lie on the outskirts of our galaxy and most light reaching us is more than
proportionally redshifted while escaping from the centres of other galaxies.

I doubt if the majority of scientists now supports the BB concept.

The broadening of lines is rather complicated as it turns out.
Brightness peaks can include light from a significant section of the orbit.
A 'peak' can contain both blue and red shifted light.
