DETECTABILITY OF FRINGE SHIFTS

Ich bringe nun eine weitere Fortsetzung von Kapitel 4 (Chapter 4) aus dem Buch von
Professor Wallace Kantor „Relativistic Propagation of Light„:

Zitat:

DETECTABILITY OF FRINGE SHIFTS

The positive qualitative result of the Kantor experiment (1962) [10] contradicting the absolute speed of light hypothesis has yet to be duplicated. Three subsequently published attempts have yielded negative results, which were claimed as confirming the Einstein postulate on the absolute speed of light. These negative results were the consequence of a failure to properly adjust and maintain adjustment of the interferometer at its best condition for the detection of a fringe shift. The wrong conclusion, in all of these experiments, that the apparent null results sup-ported the absolute speed of light hypothesis, while seemingly reasonable, has been too hastily embraced.

The problem can best be appreciated by the consideration of the phenomenon of optical interference by a pair of coherent light sources as shown in Fig. 2.
