On July 12, 1887 Albert A. Michelson and Edward W Morley made the final measurements in an experiment that inadvertently changed forever the way we view the workings of the universe. The pair hoped to ...

ABSTRACT: Michelson’s technical invention of his interferometer and his performance of the first experiment with the interferometer was a milestone in the history of physics. This paper reviews the ...

In 1887, Michelson and Morley tried to observe in laboratory the "ether drift" by measuring a small difference in the velocity of two perpendicular light beams. The result of their measurements, ...

Shortly after the Michelson-Morley experiment, physicist Oliver Heaviside noticed something funky: When electric charges are set in motion, their electric fields squish a little bit along the ...
