Enrico, the principle of Special Relativity as stated by Halliday and
Resnick
pages 953 and 954, Fundamentals of Physics, 1988.

I am quoting:

" 1. The Postulate of Relativity: The laws of physics are the same for
observers
in all inertial reference frames. No frame is singled out as
preferred."

" 2. The Postulate of the Speed of Light. The speed of light in free
space has the
same value c in all directions and in all inertial reference frames."

Now the question is, that sound does have a Doppler shift effect for
there is no
Special Relativity of Sound waves. But, light waves does obey Special
Relativity,
so here the question is, can we have a Doppler shift effect on light
waves
yet still obey Special Relativity?

That was my question Enrico. For I suspect, those two are
contradictory, yet
noone in physics was really smart enough to see that. That light waves
do not Doppler shift.

Now how do I prove that? Well, it is not easy, in fact, it is
difficult, because the
human mind is foreign to Quantum Mechanics and can only tease out the
truth
in little parcels. We cannot see the 4th dimension, nor can we even
see Elliptic
geometry 3rd dimension, so to tease out that light waves cannot be
Doppler shifted
due to Special Relativity is as difficult as trying to see the 4th
dimension.

But I think the proof goes in this manner, Enrico.

Tentative proof that the Doppler Shift is only for sound waves and
never for
light waves: We know that speed is distance divided by time. We know
that
momentum involves speed. We know that the quantum canonical conjugates
of momentum and position are replaceable with energy and time. So the
arguement would go that since speed of light is a constant in Special
Relativity,
we can replace the speed with that of energy and frequency. So in
essence,
Special Relativity holds the frequency of light waves a constant. And
so a Doppler
shift of frequency violates Special Relativity.

The Doppler Effect in physics was never meant to spill over into
light, nor into
quantum mechanics. The Doppler Effect exists only for sound waves and
other
waves but never light waves.

Enrico, my reading of the Pound & Rebka Experiment as in the Wikipedia
write up:

--- quoting from Wikipedia of the actual experiment itself ---
The test was carried out at Harvard University's Jefferson
laboratory.
A solid sample containing iron (57Fe) emitting gamma rays was placed
in the center of a loudspeaker cone which was placed near the roof
of
the building. Another sample containing 57Fe was placed in the
basement. The distance between this source and absorber was 22.5
meters (73.8 ft). The gamma rays traveled through a Mylar bag filled
with helium to minimize scattering of the gamma rays. A
scintillation
counter was placed below the receiving 57Fe sample to detect the
gamma
rays that were not absorbed by the receiving sample. By vibrating
the
speaker cone the gamma ray source moved with varying speed, thus
creating varying Doppler shifts. When the Doppler shift canceled out
the gravitational blueshift, the receiving sample absorbed gamma
rays
and the number of gamma rays detected by the scintillation counter
dropped accordingly.
--- end quoting ---

Is that all such experiments have to cancel out the gravitational
blueshift by
the Doppler shift. And that the only way to proceed in this
cancellation is to
eliminate the scattering and to focus those photons and this is done
by
** refraction**. So all such Pound/Rebka experiments use a refraction.

As you can read, they used a mylar bag of helium to focus and to
elminate scattering. And all such experiments following Pound and
Rebka
used refraction for this cancellation. So in effect, the Pound Rebka
Experiment was never about Doppler shifting of light waves but rather
simply a refraction and scattering experiment of light waves.

So, let me try to explain how Dirac Positron Space as gravity explains
the
Pound/Rebka Experiment. The space in the Experiment has x number of
positron space. Those positrons are fewer than the atoms of normal
matter
that occupy that space. But the positrons are attracted electrically
to the
atoms in that space, and attracted 10^-40 of a Coulomb attraction.
This
Coulomb gravity as the gamma rays in the experiment travel in that
space
are deflected by the Positron gravity Space. And so there never was a
Doppler shift in the experiment, but only a refraction, and possibly a
scattering.
