OK as I read more of Cahill's paper I am beginning to sense why it is wrong. He is aware of the dipole anisotropy of CMB and says his effect is different in...
Thanks Tony.:-) I need to think about it more as well. It's all in the details. It will take time. Curious Cahill gets a number close to the dipole anisotropy...
... This comment is a red herring by itself. Cahill's model is such that the speed measurement of the ABSOLUTE motional speed v also depends on n. That is all....
... But I think Cahill affirms that you cannot detect motion interferometrically using light propagating though a vacuum -- only using light that is prpagating...

In the absence of a workable micro-theory for the Lorentz contraction, how do we know that this contraction also applies to a gas? For example, if the Lorentz...

bcc Update So far I cannot find any error in Cahill's basic kinematical formulae for the Michelson interferometer, i.e. eqs 1 & 2 p.4. He is not rejecting the...
Tony Smith's conclusion (based on the statement that n is not a constant because of the Lorentz contraction) that Cahill's theory is flawed and wrong, is by...

bcc Paul The data do, at this moment in the stream of the collective WEB consciousness, SEEM to point to a preferred frame. To really know would be very...
Koen makes a good point. I opt for spontaneous broken vacuum symmetry of the O(1,3) group as the explanation. All preferred frames can be understood that way. ...
... Yes, it does seem so. But you have to lift the "Einsteinian" taboos. ... If it were easy, the matter would have been settled already. However, I think...

No Gary, that is, I think completely different from what I am talking about. They mean actual operators in the dynamical action that explicitly break Lorentz...
