Relativistic analysis of Michelson-Morley experiments and Miller's cosmic solution for the Earth's motion

Classical Physics 2007-05-23 v1 General Physics

Abstract

A simple relativistic treatment of Michelson-Morley type of experiments shows the remarkable internal consistency of 1932 Miller's cosmic solution v_{earth} \sim 208 km/s deduced from the experimental fringe shifts observed with his apparatus. The same analysis of present-day experiments is in good agreement with the existing data.
