Interference Patterns Within a Circular Boundary
preprint
OA: closed
Abstract
Abstract In this paper we conduct a simple experiment within a circular ripple tank that conceals a paradox of unequal path lengths equivalent to the Michelson-Morley experiment of 1887. Leveraging on the equivalence of aqueous and optical interferometry, we analyse the outcome of our experiment to uncover a conflict between the predictions of general relativity and the symmetry of nature. Most astoundingly, it may be possible that this everyday phenomena and its analysis has somehow escaped the attention of rational thinkers from antiquity to the present day.
