Observations/Interferometry: Difference between revisions

Miller was able to determine a direct cause and effect relationship with the speed of The Ether the most the movement of the sun and the axial tilt of the cosmic microwave background the Fringe shift pattern reached their maximum and minimum dimensions in accordance with the equinoxes this is a direct this is directly relating a translation of motion from the sky to the Earth

Miller's later work consisted of taking measurements at altitude, this allowed him to make consistent measurements of the fluctuation in ether speed.

While Miller was doing these experiments that were proving a measurement with The Ether in correspondence with the with the sky , he was criticized heavily. People were saying that can't be possible, you must there must be some error in your work, and had a lot of people attacking and critiquing his work while his experiments were going on.

Periodicity of the of global ether Drift from Dayton Miller's Mount Wilson ether drift experiment 1925-1926. The top graft above plus the data from four separate months or epochs measured at different times of the year organized by sidereal time showing a definite periodic curve the heavy line is the mean of all four epochs. (figure 1 bottom Graph) above plots the same data organized by civil clock time coordinates, here is the same data spread out along the graph without apparent periodicity.

This demonstrates that the detected axis in the Periodicity of The Ether drift is the same or different times of that year, so it can only be seen when the data is viewed through a cosmological sidereal coordinate system from Miller 1928, page 362. These data curves are organized along with Azimuth means that were later recomputed with Miller's publication as given in (Figure 1 top Graph).

On average velocity and Azimuth of global ether drift, from Dayton Miller's Mount Wilson ether drift experiments 1925-1926. (Figure 1 top Graph) average variations is observed in The observed magnitude of ether Drift from all four epochs of measurement. Maximum velocities occurs at about five hours sidereal time and minimum velocity occurs at about 17 hours sidereal time. While Miller's 1933 paper assumed the Earth was pushing through the ether and moving towards Dorado near the southern pole of the plane of the ecliptic, the movement and direction of The Ether drift past the interferometer was exactly opposite to this toward Draco, near the North Pole, and the plane of the ecliptic 17 hours right Ascension declination of plus 68 degrees.

It is important from the standpoint of his working the theory to clarify the concepts of the net motion of the earth versus the direction of The Ether drift, however if the ether itself is in motion acting as a cosmic prime mover the direction of The Ether drift in the net motion of the Earth would be identical, although at different velocities.

The bottom graph average variation and observed Azimuth readings according to sidereal time this graph uses the theme average and data curve from (Figure 1 top graph) published by Miller 1928 page 363. But at the time was given a different Baseline average the the same graph is present here for the first time using Miller's revised seasonal averages as published in 1933 page 235, which helped Define the axis of ether drift.

Dayton Miller modeled out, based on those measurements, so basically he thought that he was measuring the axial tilt of the earth. A model constructed by Miller displaying the axis of ether drift through the four seasons (of what he thought was the Earth moving around the Sun and the axis of drift), this model appears to be roughly perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic, so this is what Miller modeled out from his measurements. So, I'm going to play this out that this is what Miller measured, essentially on a flat plane with the sun doing all of the same stuff that he measured in the ether translating the motion of the sky down to the Earth.

Robert Shanklin was brought in to basically character assassinate Miller and his work. Shanklin a former student of Miller later became a proponent of Einstein's relativity theory, and he built his career on Publications that misrepresented the Michelson-Morley experiments as solid evidence against the existence of ether. The bias raised questions about the objectivity of Shanklin and his team, as reviewers of Miller's work.

David's Miller work on The Ether drift which was conducted with precision and diligence has been disregarded and omitted from The History of Science, despite Miller's response to his criticism to his critics in his consistent demonstration of The Ether drift phenomenon he was viewed as a threat by Einstein and his followers who sought to explain away Miller's work.
