1 day ago · The Michelson–Morley experiment was an attempt to measure the motion of the Earth relative to the luminiferous aether, a supposed medium permeating space that was thought to be the carrier of light waves.
Apr 28, 2024 · The Michelson-Morley Experiment, conducted in 1887 by Albert Michelson and Edward Morley, aimed to detect the existence of the luminiferous aether, a hypothetical medium believed to carry light waves. The surprising outcome of the experiment revolutionized the field of physics and paved the way for Einstein’s theory of relativity.

5 days ago · In the real experiment, Michelson and Morely could not assume the arms were perfectly aligned with the aether motion, but they could use the motion of the Earth around the sun to argue that after a few months, the alignment of the arms relative to the aether's velocity would change, which would lead to a difference in $\Delta \phi$.

May 1, 2024 · Important early experiments confirming special relativity as mentioned above were the Fizeau experiment, the Michelson–Morley experiment, the Kaufmann–Bucherer–Neumann experiments, the Trouton–Noble experiment, the experiments of Rayleigh and Brace, and the Trouton–Rankine experiment.
Apr 15, 2024 · In the MM experiment, assuming the existence of aether, the analysis is carried out using the Galilei-Newton model of spacetime that boils down to the existence of an absolute time (spacetime is an affine fiber bundle over the absolute time ) . The experimental negative results imply one of the following: the Galilei-Newton spacetime model is ...
6 days ago · Michelson and Morley in 1887 designed an experiment, employing an interferometer and a half-silvered mirror, that was accurate enough to detect aether flow. The mirror system reflected the light back into the interferometer. If there were an aether drift, it would produce a phase shift and a change in the interference that would be detected ...
