http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass–energy_equivalence#Alternative_versionAccording to Wikipedia,
"The velocity is small, so the right-moving light is blueshifted by ... Doppler shift factor [tex]1-\frac{v}{c}[/tex]
But [tex]1-\frac{v}{c}[/tex] should not be applied under relativistic conditions.
The formula [tex]\frac{1}{1+\frac{v}{c}}[/tex] should be used instead.So wouldn't this invalidate Rohrlich's derivation?
