// <synopsis>
// An MVDoppler is a simple Double, to be used in the MDoppler measure.
// Requirements can be found in the
// <linkto class=MeasValue>MeasValue</linkto> base class.<br>
// The only reasonable constructor is (but all MeasValue constructors are
// present)
// <src>MVDoppler(Double)</src>; and an <src>operator Double</src> takes
// care of all other possibilities. Its external use is for
//  <linkto class=MeasConvert>MeasConvert</linkto>, to distinguish between
// input in internal Measure units, and values which have to have
// units applied.<br>
// The MVDoppler(Quantum) constructors recognise the type of representation
// characteristics presented from its units. Recognised are:
// <ul>
//   <li> no dimensions: value assumed to be dimensionless as is
//   <li> velocity: value will be divided by c (light velocity)
// </ul>
// <br> The Doppler is returned dimensionless with getValue(); or as a Quantity
// in m/s with get(); or in one of the related units with get(unit).
// </synopsis>
//
// <example>
// See <linkto class=MDoppler>MDoppler</linkto>
// </example>
//
// <motivation>
// To aid coordinate transformations possibilities
// </motivation>
