Experiments observe nothing whatsoever between the time of emission of the particle and its arrival at the detection screen.

The waves " bunch together ", so the time between arrival of successive wavefront s is reduced, giving them a higher frequency.

The waves " stretch apart ", so the time between the arrival of successive wave-fronts is increased slightly, giving them a lower frequency.

Therefore the time between the arrival of successive wave crests at the observer is reduced, causing an increase in the frequency.

Conversely, if the source of waves is moving away from the observer, each wave is emitted from a position farther from the observer than the previous wave, so the arrival time between successive waves is increased, reducing the frequency.
