We base our calculation on the relative ray path. We consider radiation that encloses angles between ${\displaystyle \phi }$ and ${\displaystyle \phi +d\phi }$ with the direction of motion; it carries – in unit volume through the unit surface of a perpendicular (co-moving) plane – the energy amount:

${\displaystyle 2\pi J\ \sin \phi \ \cos \phi \ d\phi .}$

We call ${\displaystyle J}$ the intensity of the total (relative) radiation. If this radiation is incident upon an absorbing surface, it performs the pressure work:[1]

${\displaystyle q\cdot {\frac {2\pi J\sin \phi \cos \phi \ d\phi }{c}}\cdot \cos \varphi =2\pi J\sin \phi \cos \phi \ d\phi \ \beta \cos \varphi ,}$

where ${\displaystyle \varphi }$ is the angle between the absolute radiation direction and the direction of motion. The difference:

${\displaystyle 2\pi J\ \sin \phi \ \cos \phi \ d\phi (1-\beta \ \cos \varphi )=2\pi i\ \sin \phi \ \cos \phi \ d\phi }$

 ${\displaystyle i=J(1-\beta \cos \varphi )}$ (19)
We employ the standpoint of Lorentz's contraction hypothesis and introduce the angle ${\displaystyle \phi '}$ by the equation
 ${\displaystyle {\begin{array}{rl}\operatorname {tg} \ \phi '=&\varkappa \ \operatorname {tg} \ \phi \\\varkappa {}^{2}=&1-\beta ^{2}\end{array}}}$ (20)
2. This terminology agrees with the one used in an earlier paper (Ann. d. Phys., 15 [1904]). There, ${\displaystyle i}$ and ${\displaystyle i_{0}}$ was written instead of ${\displaystyle J}$ and ${\displaystyle i}$. See also Jahrb. d. Radioaktivität und Elektronik, 2, p. 283 (1905).
