On the Detection of Absolute Motion Relative to a Preferred Frame
Résumé
From the classical perspective, it is well known that the use of the Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction of bodies in the direction of motion explains the null results reported by Michelson & Morley in their famous experiment (and all successive repetitions). In this paper, using a one-way interferometer and taking into account Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction, we show that it is possible to detect changes in the interference pattern proportional to the velocity of the interferometer relative to a preferred frame in which light's speed is 'c'.
