AI overview
Christian Doppler was an Austrian mathematician and physicist who lived from 1803 to 1853. He is remembered for discovering the Doppler effect, the change in frequency of waves (like sound or light) when the source moves toward or away from an observer, which has important applications in astronomy, medicine, and radar technology.

Christian Andreas Doppler (/ˈdɒplər/; German: [ˈdɔplɐ] ; 29 November 1803 – 17 March 1853) was an Austrian mathematician and physicist. He formulated the principle – now known as the Doppler effect – that the observed frequency of a wave depends on the relative speed of the source and the observer.
