Precision tests with a new class of dedicated ether-drift experiments

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

In principle, by accepting the idea of a non-zero vacuum energy, the physical vacuum of present particle physics might represent a preferred reference frame. By treating this quant…

Flat-space picture of gravity vs. General Relativity: a precision test for present ether-drift experiments

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

Modern ether-drift experiments in vacuum could in principle detect the tiny refractive index that, in a flat-space picture of gravity, is appropriate for an apparatus placed on the…

Is the physical vacuum a preferred frame ?

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

It is generally assumed that the physical vacuum of particle physics should be characterized by an energy momentum tensor in such a way to preserve exact Lorentz invariance. On the…

An easy reading of modern ether-drift experiments

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

Modern ether-drift experiments look for a preferred reference frame searching for modulations of the beat note of two optical resonators that might be induced by the Earth's rotati…

The motion of the Solar System and the Michelson-Morley experiment

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

Historically, the Michelson-Morley experiment has played a crucial role for abandoning the idea of a preferred reference frame, the ether, and for replacing Lorentzian Relativity w…

The Michelson-Morley experiment and the cosmic velocity of the Earth

M. Consoli, E. Costanzo

The Michelson-Morley experiment was designed to detect the relative motion of the Earth with respect to a preferred reference frame, the ether, by measuring the fringe shifts in an…
