It is always measured for moving source only, because the Earth moves without any doubt. The result is just c, because the one-way speed is: c(f) = 1/gamma / 1 - vcosf therefore the TWLS is simply a harmonic mean: c(f) and c(f+180), which is just c * (1-v^2) = c / gamma then your local clock slows down gamma times, thus you must measure just that: c / gamma * gamma = c.

Have you read this?
The abstract starts with:
“The ether drift due to motion of the Earth has been discovered in the
process of tracking of a geostationary satellite. […]”
And the paper starts as follows:
“Introduction
In earlier, and unsuccessful, attempts to detect motion of the Earth, the
issue of entrainment of the luminiferous medium (ether) by moving bodies was
not properly taken into account. Ether was supposed to pass freely through
any body, and through the Earth itself, and it was assumed that the velocity
of ether drift is equal and opposite in direction to that of the Earth. […]”
See also:
<https://books.google.com/books?id=KnzBDjnGIgYC&pg=PA1113&lpg=PA1113&dq=Observation+of+Ether+Drift+in+Experiments+with+Geostationary+Satellites&source=bl&ots=7RrohYLsDG&sig=_pVlG3YyVGVKazPto1w2b3GRPqg&hl=de&sa=X&ved=0CDUQ6AEwAmoVChMInYPFsJzjxwIVQ1wUCh09twMQ#v=onepage&q=Observation%20of%20Ether%20Drift%20in%20Experiments%20with%20Geostationary%20Satellites&f=false>
It should not be too surprising that someone who believes in the existence
of a luminiferous ether, despite the many experiments in the past 195 years
that *all* yielded a null result [1], and who denies relativistic redshift,
despite its usefulness in astrophysics and cosmology [2], claims to have
observed a different speed of light as well. Given the only *two*
references of that paper (of 1926 and 1929, respectively), I blame
dysfunctional brain cells due to prolonged exposure to Siberian climate.
Almost needless to say that this 2005 paper, of the “Proceedings of the NPA”
(Natural Philosophy Alliance, “a group that believes mainstream physics and
cosmology are wrong”¹), Vol. 2, No. 1, apparently has never passed any peer
review of any scientific journal to be taken seriously, if it has even been
submitted to one.
So perhaps the challenge should be reworded into “Name one person who does
not believe in the existence of a luminiferous ether and measured the speed
of light in a vacuum and found it to be not c.” Or something similar.

Dayton Miller consistent- ly observed a small effect, unconnected with any earthly factors but well-correlated with the orbital motion of the Earth: http://ether-wind.narod.ru/Miller_1933/Miller1933_ocr.pdf See mr. Miller's address at the Mt. Wilson confer- ence for details on the hardware and the procedure: http://ether-wind.narod.ru/Conference_1927/Conference_1927.pdf If you will carefully read just these two documents you shall see that the "null result" is a falsifica- tion and that Shankland's analysis fails to explain Miller's positive result. They also tell why numer- ous other repetitions failed. There are other positive ether-wind experiments, which no one to my knowledge has refuted. > -> and who denies relativistic redshift, despite > its usefulness in astrophysics and cosmolo- > gy[2], -> Redshift is accounted in all ether theories mostly through photons' loss of enery as they move though viscous either.

Thomas J. Roberts must be famous, for others have
used his article in arguments with me about the
Miller experiments. His paper is primarily based on
Miller's large 1933 article referenced above, so I
wonder why he states that "because of the 180 degree
symmetry of the interferometer, any real signal can
depend only on orientation modulo 180 degrees," when
a full-period, first-order effect was detected by
Miller and explained by Hicks, whose calculations I
have at hand should you need them.
To be concise, the interferometer can't be perfectly
symmetrical if any interference is to be observed
because fringes of finite width appear when the two
wavefronts are slightly non-parallel. This asymme-
try causes a full-period effect from the ether wind,
which Roberts assumes does not exists ascibing it to
the systematic error. Miller summarizes:
In the theory of Hicks it is shown that when the
periodic variation in the relative phases of the
two beams of light in the inter-ferometer takes
place with the mirrors adjusted as in actual
practice, there is introduced an additional
effect which is periodic in a full turn of the
instrument. The amplitude of this full-period
effect, which varies inversely as the width of
the fringes being used at the time of observa-
tion, is about equal to the amplitude of the
ether-drift effect when there are eight fringes
in the field of view; with the adjustment usually
secured for six fringes in the field of view, the
full-period effect is smaller than the half-
period effect.
That may explain the deviation of the marker-9
points from the line between markers 1 and 17 in
fig. 3, in which Roberts sees evidence for a non-
linear systematic drift. Note how the majority of
the marker-9 measurements are above the linear drift
graph showing the postive half-wave of the full-pe-
riod effect.
His other careless statement that Miller arbitrarily
chose the linear model of the systematic drift is
also wrong, for in that same 1933 paper Miller ex-
plains that from the many tests he found temperature
effects to maintain a constant influence though each
50-second turn due to the high thermal capacity of
the interferometer, and a constant derivative calls
for a linear function, which may not affect the
clarity of any harmonic signal. Therefore Roberts
is wrong in calculating the error bars before sub-
tracting the linear model. The error would have
been several times lower if had done so after the
subtraction, which may be thought an essential part
of the measurement procedure. One should calculate
the dispersion of the measured signal, which is the
difference of the fringe shift from the linear tem-
prerature drift.
Quoth Miller:
The observation is a differential one and can be
made with considerable certainty under all condi-
tions. Disturbances, due to temperature or other
causes lasting for a few seconds or for a few
minutes, might affect the actual amount of the
observed displacement and give less certain val-
ues for the velocity of the ether-drift while, at
the same time, the position of maximum displace-
ment is not altered.
I would add that rapid disturbances will be reduced
during the averaging, as well as any additive noise
originating outside the interferometer and therefore
unperiodic in its turn.
Neither does Roberts explain the way that his hypo-
thetical instrumental error could produce a sinu-
soidal pseudosignal with a constant galactic orien-
tantion:
The curves for the three epochs were simply aver-
aged and it was found that when plotted in rela-
tion to local civil time, the curves are in such
phase relations that they nearly neutralize each
other; the average effect for the three epochs
thus plotted is very small and unsystematic. The
curves of observation were then plotted with
respect to sidereal time and a very striking con-
sistency of their principal characteristics was
shown to exist, not only among the three curves
for azimuth and those for magnitude, but, what
was more impressive, there was a consistency
between the two sets of curves, as though they
were related to a common cause. The average of
the curves, on sidereal time, showed conclusively
that the observed effect is dependent upon side-
real time and is independent of diurnal and sea-
sonal changes of temperature and other terres-
trial causes and that it is a cosmical phe-
nomenon.
How can an instumental error track the time of day
and the season of the year in precisely the way to
neutralize them, maintaining a constant galactic di-
rection in *all* the experiments over the years?
Roberts does not care to anwer that.
He is also wrong about Miller's averaging of half-
turns as part of data analysis. Miller did no such
thing and employed harmonic analysis to his full-pe-
riod curves. He explains:
These charted ???curves??? of the actual observations
contain not only the second-order, half-period
ether-drift effect, but also a first-order, full-
period effect, any possible effects of higher
orders, together with all instrumental and acci-
dental errors of observation.
Why does Roberts misinform us, presenting Miller's
visualisation procedure intended for "a preliminary
study of the observations" for the one he used in
"the definitive study of the ether-drift effect?"
The 1933 article describes both procedures and re-
veals Roberts's confusion.
One of Miller's errors in Roberts's opinion is the
averaging of data, so I wonder why he has retained
the supposed averaging of the half-turns in his re-
analysis, while Miller himself did not employ it.
Was it not the easier to impose his hypothesis of
the second harmonic's emerging from the Brownian
spectrum of the instrumental drift? I would he had
practised as he preaches and had analysed the uncom-
pressed, full-period measurements, even as Miller
did finding that both the first and the third har-
monics were always smaller than the second one (fig.
21 in his article). Or you may look at the full-pe-
riod graph in the picture of Miller's sample record.
Might Roberts have intentionally analyzed the wrong
algorithm to hide the uncomfortably small first har-
monic? Under his hypothesis it should dominate the
full-period spectrum, and if Miller's original pro-
cedure had been applied to the full turns he would
have detected an apparent full-period nearly-sinu-
soidal singal with a magnitude twice as high as that
of the purported ether drift. But, as shown above,
this is simply not the case, and Roberts's drift
model fails to account for the prevalence of the
second harmonic in the full-period spectrum.
Therefore, his explanation of "how flaws in
[Miller's] analysis procedure produced a false sig-
nal with precisely the properties he expected" is
invalid, because it is based on a wrong assumption
about the original procedure:
This is a simple consequence of the fact that the
1???2-turn Fourier component is the lowest fre-
quency retained by the algorithm, and it will
dominate because of the falling spectrum. When a
single frequency bin dominates the Fourier spec-
trum, the signal itself looks approximately like
a sinusoid with that period. Using this data
reduction algorithm, any noise with a falling
spectrum will end up looking like an approxi-
mately sinusoidal ???signal??? with a period of 1???2
turn -- precisely what Miller was looking for.
Roberts claims to have found a model of the system-
atic drift in Miller's experiment, but he has not
revealed this model even for a single twenty-turn
set so that readers might study it by themselves. I
for one should subtract it from the raw data and
look at the result, because Roberts did it in fre-
quency domain which is rather unituitive and con-
tains quantization and other errors of the discrete
Fourier transformation.
Roberts's only precaution against unintentional in-
clusion of the real signal into the systematic drift
is the subtraction of the first turn from all the
other turns. It does not seem a statistically right
operation when the noise is many times more powerful
than the signal, as it is in our case. The noise
may have conspired completely to mask any singal in
this turn. To attain any degree of certainty one
would have to repeat the subtraction with the other
turns as the subtrahend and compare the results. If
they would be very different then the procedure is
wrong.
That being said, I am not sure that the half-period-
ic component belongs to the systematic drift rather
than to the actual signal. The result of his re-
analysis may be a mere consequence his data-process-
ing procedure, just as he thinks about Miller's own
result.
Leaving the nature of the instrumental drift unex-
plained and uncommented upon, Roberts's "explana-
tion" seems but an abstract mathematical excercize
with little physical value because it offers no in-
sight into the physical cause of this drift.

Which is close to Miller's result but somewhat
smaller because the experiment was performed closer
to the ground.

I don't think so, but would postpone this subject
till another post, for this one is already big
enough.
P.S.: Do read Miller's 1933 article linked above and
preferable his address at the conference as
well.

Miller's "signal" was statistically insignificant [#]. It is essentially his
instrument's (thermal ?) drift aliased into the same bin where any signal would
be, because he used a FLAWED analysis algorithm. It is sinusoidal and LOOKED
like a signal would look, because of the properties of his noise and the comb
filter he (inadvertently) applied.
In his day, before Shannon, he could not have known this.
But today, with modern DSP techniques it is obvious.
Moreover, back then they did not routinely perform an
error analysis. Today we do, and the basic error analysis
of his data shows that the errorbars are MUCH larger than
the variations in his data -- his "signal" is NOT
statistically significant [#]. And since he averaged his data
down to just a few frequency bins (in DSP-speak this is a
comb filter), the aliased ~ 1/f noise looks like a sinusoid
with frequency corresponding to the lowest bin (where any
signal would be).
[#] this is bulletproof, because we know how averaging affects
the errorbars on the mean.

Miller's experiments WERE based on a fundamental error (actually several of
them). Einstein and relativity are vindicated.
See my paper about this: http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0608238
It discusses the above criticisms. It also applies a model of his instrument's
drift plus an orientation-dependent signal. The signal is consistent with zero
in all runs in my dataset, and exactly zero in all reliable runs. The drift is
HIGHLY nonlinear, negating the basic assumption of Miller's analysis algorithm.
I used some of Miller's original data sheets (amazingly, copies are still
available from the CWRU archives).
In a following article you said:

Probably because it is the only MODERN analysis of his data (I used copies of
his original data sheets from the CWRU archives).

The 180-degree symmetry is OBVIOUS in his drawings. And since his basic signal
was statistically not significant by a VERY large margin, I have no doubt that
the "full-period first-order effect" is likewise not statistically significant.
For instance, if a linear drift was assumed the whole thing is useless, because
the drift of that instrument is HIGHLY nonlinear.
Similarly, if data were averaged then the implicit comb filter and aliasing
destroy any usefulness in the result.

Sure. But this is PHYSICS, not any "perfect" system. The question is whether the

Look at figure 3 of my paper -- I count 10 points above the line, 5 below, and 5
on it. That's hardly decisive.
Look at Figure 5 -- the errorbars are ~ 0.8 fringe, which is MUCH larger than
the difference point-to-line of any turn in Fig 3. So that IN-decisive
"half-wave" you think you see is NOT significant.
Amateurs look for patterns, professionals look at errorbars.
You see a pattern, I see errorbars that show that it is in your imagination, not
the data.
Humans are extremely good pattern-finding machines, and often
find patterns where none are present. Some people see "the
Virgin Mary" in water stains and burnt toast, while you (and
Miller) see a "signal" here.

It was not "careless" at all -- LOOK at figure 10 of my paper -- the drift is
HIGHLY nonlinear, for every orientation.

Nevertheless an actual model of the drift shows it to be HIGHLY nonlinear (fig
10, and also figs 2 and 3). Look at figure 4 of my paper -- the variation in the
data at this particular orientation is CLEARLY dominated by the systematic drift.
I challenge ANYBODY to look at figure 2 (which is just Miller's raw data with
his adjustments restored), and claim that the drift is "linear"!
(at the level of ~0.5 fringe one could claim that for turns
1-3 and 14-18, but most turns are nowhere close to linear.)

I did it both ways while preparing the article. There's no significant
difference in that the errorbars are MUCH larger than the variation in the
means. IOW the drift is HIGHLY NONLINEAR, and subtracting a linear drift does
not affect much.

Like Miller, you CLEARLY do not understand the TERRIBLE effects of averaging. It
completely hid from him what was really going on. Had he just plotted out my
Figure 2, he would KNOW that his assumptions were simply not valid. All you need
to do is LOOK AT FIGURE 2 to see your claims are nonsense.
To claim to find a "signal" in Fig 2, with amplitude ~ 0.1
fringe is just LUDICROUS.
[Had he been able to make the instrument perform like turns 1-3
all the time, then he might have had something. But out of the
~1,000 data runs that I have looked at, whenever he did so it
CLEARLY had no signal at all, just a smooth drift (see my final
two paragraphs below).]

OF COURSE NOT! There is no significant signal. Yes, there are variations, and if
one INSISTS on interpreting them as "signal" then it must have some orientation.

Experimenter's bias. He knew what he wanted to find. As do you.
Re-plot with errorbars, and you will find that there is a point in one
direction, with errorbars that span the sky!

No "misinform" or "confusion". Miller's "signal" was not statistically
significant. Nothing can change that. Including your attempts to dismiss it.

READ THE PAPER. I did no averaging at all in part IV, my new analysis of 67 of
his original data sheets.

READ THE PAPER. I analyzed all 20 turns of each run, with no averaging at all.

I analyzed Miller's ORIGINAL DATA SHEETS. Not his "algorithm" (which I did
discuss in parts II and III of the paper, but did not use in any way in part IV).
The first harmonic, and any other harmonic, is IRRELEVANT in my analysis.

READ THE PAPER. This is my Fig. 10. The text describes in detail how it was
obtained. The algorithm has to be applied to each data run individually, because
the drift is HIGHLY idiosyncratic to each run.
Basically the signal must be the same at each orientation,
while the drift happens sequentially. The technique I
used cleanly and rigorously separates out the orientation-
dependent part from the data, presenting just the drift in
Fig. 10.
> I
> for one should subtract it from the raw data and
> look at the result,
OBVIOUSLY you did not read the paper. That is NOT the correct thing to do, and
not what I did.
I fit the sum of
an arbitrary orientation-dependent function
plus
the systematic drift (determined as described in the text)
to the data for each of my 67 runs. Ignoring 11 clearly unstable runs, the
result for the orientation-dependent signal is ZERO (Fig 11).

OBVIOUSLY you did not read the paper. Part IV is all in the "time domain"
(really orientation over 20 turns).
My discussion of "frequency domain" was in part III, where I used DSP techniques
to explain where Miller's "signal" came from (his noise), and why it looks
sinusoidal (it is 1/f noise aliased into the lowest frequency bin, where any
real signal would be; when one Fourier bin dominates, the time-domain plot looks
sinusoidal with that frequency).

You OBVIOUSLY do not understand. That enables me to separate the
orientation-dependent part of the data from the drift. And it does so
INDEPENDENT of whatever noise was present in the first turn.

Doesn't matter, because:
A) the subtraction removes any orientation dependence REGARDLESS of
whatever noise was present in the first turn,
and
B) the fit will find any orientation-dependent, because it uses all
20 turns.
You REALLY need to READ THE PAPER and understand what I actually did. Your
GUESSES are wrong.

You REALLY need to READ THE PAPER and understand what I actually did. Your
GUESSES are wrong.
Yes, my analysis does not identify the source of the drift. But it DOES extract
whatever orientation-dependent signal is present in the data, and that signal is
ZERO.
THINK ABOUT IT: no analysis of his data sheets can possibly
identify sources of drift -- that requires examining and
operating the instrument and its environment.

LOOK at figure 12 of my paper. M&M's "signal" is not statistically significant,
either. Again, these errorbars are an UNDERESTIMATE, as they include ONLY the
portion due to the averaging; they are therefore unassailable.
Your last sentence is just factually wrong: much of Miller's data was taken IN
THE BASEMENT at CWRU (but in a different basement than Michelson and Morley used
30 years earlier). Later a special "interferometer house" was built with glass
windows and the interferometer at ground level (in Cleveland). Later still he
made the heroic trek to carry it up to a lab near the top of Mt. Wilson (which
is probably what you are thinking of). Then he brought it back to CWRU and took
still more data. The basement of the physics building at CWRU has special
pillars for the interferometer -- they are isolated from the building and go
down to bedrock. Miller was, of course, the chairman of the physics department
when the building was built.
After writing the paper, I was of course aware that one of the major problems
with Miller's technique was his "adjustments" to the interferometer to keep the
central fringe visible [#]. Basically the drift was too large. When I was at
CWRU (presenting a colloquium on this), Prof. Fickinger and I spent a few hours
in the archives selecting data runs which had no adjustments. We had time to
look at more than half of his >2,000 data sheets. That criteria of course
preferentially selects runs with small drift. To no great surprise, most of
these runs clearly had no "signal" at all. Many of them were simple progressions
like
+1 +1 +1 ... +2 +2 +2 ... +3 +3 +3 ... +4 +4 +4 ...
for all 20 turns. Many had a total drift less than one fringe, and all had
drifts less than 3 fringes.
Miller never mentioned these runs with no signal (probably because they were
only a few percent of his runs [@]). Nor do the people like you who so
desperately want his "signal" to be real. But it isn't.
[#] He would place a small weight on one arm to distort the
instrument and move the central fringe toward the center of his
field of view.
[@] This is more a statement about the (lack of) stability of
his instrument than anything else.

Thanks for reply, Tom. I shall address your comments when time permists, which is unlikely to happen before the next weekend. -- () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ http://preview.tinyurl.com/qcy6mjc [archived]
