Well , you obtained the same eq as Shamir for :Galilean derivation". You ARE saying it yourself: ".....for the orthogonal arm, if we ASSUME Galilean relativity...." So yes, you obtain the same result as the one Shamir used in order to JUSIFY his experiment. In other words, Galilean relativity would predict a fring shift. If you are comptent enough to write the relativistic equation for the orthogonal arm you will get a ...ZERO fringe shift. And into the wastebasket goes your grandiose paper.

You used to know it once (before Alzheimer set in). It is embarassing to base your papers on Galilean velocity addition, this is why you are relegated to fringe journals.

However I don't think Cahill "ignores" what theory is telling him. I was just looking at: Deriving the Relativity Formalism: Understanding its Successes and Failures http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0611002 The last half of the abstract says: "From the generalised Dirac equation we show that the spacetime formalism is derivable, but as merely a mathematical construct whose geodesics arise from the trajectories of quantum wavepackets in the 3-space. However the metric of this spacetime is shown not to satisfy the Hilbert-Einstein equations, except in the special case of the Schwarzschild metric. Hence we demonstrate that the successes of the General Relativity formalism have been more illusory than real, that its successes are in fact quite limited, which explains why it failed to account for the bore hole anomaly, the so-called �dark matter� spiral galaxy rotation anomaly, the systematics of black hole masses and so on. It also failed in that the dynamics of the 3-space is determined by two fundamental constants, namely G and the fine structure constant alpha." I guess derivation of the "dynamics of the 3-space" would also theoretically justify Lorentzian Relativity. Regards, Surfer

Trying a cheap diversion will not work. If you want to discuss the cheap shot at GR, we could do it later, right now stay on the subject, your fuckup of the MMX experiment. The one that no decent journal picked up, remember? |
