This result constitutes a strong argument in support of length contraction and of the existence of a model of aether non-entrained by the motion of celestial bodies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\"><strong><!--more-->I. Introduction<br \/>\n<\/strong>It is well established today that no fringe shift occurs when Michelson and Morley experiments are performed in vacuum [1-5]. The explanation of this result, based on Lorentz and Fitzgerald assumptions, attributes the effect to a length contraction affecting the material bodies in the direction of their absolute motion. The said hypothesis is supported by the fact that it perfectly predicts that the two\u2013way transit time of light along a rod surrounded by the vacuum, is independent of the angle separating the rod from any fixed axis [6-9].\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">However the objection which was done to Lorentz\u2019s hypothesis, is that the light signals that propagate along the two arms of the interferometer have little chance to be in phase when they reach the detector, whatever the orientation of the arms. We propose in this text to check the exactness (or not) of this claim.<\/p>\n<p style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">Given the equality of the two-way transit time of light mentioned above, it is clear that if the number of oscillations in the two arms is equal, the waves will be in phase when they reach the detector. We will verify whether, assuming length contraction in the direction of the absolute motion of the Earth frame, the number of oscillations in the round trip of a light signal along a rod is (or not) dependent on its orientation , and the implications of this fact on Michelson-Morley experiment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"TEXT-ALIGN: justify\">Lesen Sie bitte <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.worldsci.org\/pdf\/abstracts\/abstracts_5878.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\">hier<\/span><\/a><\/strong> weiter!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Joseph Levy In agreement with Michelson-Morley experiments performed in vacuum, we show that, assuming the existence of a fundamental aether frame and of a length contraction affecting the material bodies in the direction of the Earth absolute velocity, the light signals, travelling along the arms of the interferometer arrive in phase whatever their orientation, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3122","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-englischsprachige-kritik-der-relativitatstheorie"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3122"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3122"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3122\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3122"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3122"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ekkehard-friebe.de\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3122"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
