Though the experiment has been done repeatedly for many times, it seems that the calculating method of the experiment hasn’t been studied carefully. I am interested in the method of the calculation and have been studied it for a long time then I found that the original algorithm of the experiment is ct  ct ct  ct wrong: Michelson’s experiment can’t be calculated by the formula m  , and m    should be used. In Michelson’s experiment, even if “ether wind” does exists, with the correct algorithm, ct ct m 0 . The interference stripe don’t move, and of course the movement of the interference stripe  can’t be observed in the experiment. So,here comes a conclusion, Michelson’s experiment can not prove the inexistence of “ether wind ”. [Key word] Michelson’s experiment calculating mistake inexistence of the “ether wind” can’t be testified

ⅠSufficient and Necessary Condition of the establishment of Formula ()()rr rr m 21 21 

Shown in figure one: we can suppose that rrrr2112  ,  , two points S1 , S2 send out the light ray,

which spread to space, ()rr21 corresponds to point P, the

()()rr21 rr 21 correspond to point Prr ; (21 ) and

()rr21 correspond to different set of points. The numeric

values of ()rr21 moves along with interference stripe; oppositely,

interference stripe varies along with the numeric values of ()rr21 , Just as Young’s experiment. Only in this case, the formula

I

()()rr rr m 21 21 is tenable, we get:  Conclusion one:The number that interference stripe moves along with the change of the optical path length difference equals to the variable quantity of optical path length difference divided by the

()()rr21 rr 21 wavelength m only when the relationship between interference stripe and optical path  difference ()rr21 is in one–one correspondence. Ⅱ The Light Route of Michelson’s Experiment is Closed Michelson’s experiment is different from Young’s experiment, the light route of Michelson’s experiment is closed. we may suppose that lll12in Michelson’s experiment.

22ll Fig two shows: t  22corresponds to point A, cvc1/ 22cvc(1 / ) 22ll Fig three: t 22  corresponds to point A also. cvc(1 / ) cvc1/ 22 Obviously, before and after the whole interferometer is turned by 90° in the experiment,

ttt and  correspond to the same set of point, and according to the formula

22 2  A1212 AAArr 2cos( 21  )   

we know that the average light intensity of the interference stripe corresponding to tt and are the same, which means that the brightness of the Interference Stripe is the same .Therefore ,we get :

Conclusion two: In Michelson’s experiment, tt and  corresponds to the same observational interference stripe. Ⅲ The Difference between Michelson’s Experiment and Young’s Experiment

Based on the foregoing, in Young ’s experiment, the interference stripe and the difference (r2  r1 ) is in

II

one–one correspondence; but in Michelson’s experiment, before and after the whole instrument is turned by 90°, optical path difference c tt and  c , which is opposite number of each other, correspond to the same observational interference stripe. Therefore, the relationship between the interference stripe and the difference

()rr21 isn’t in one–one correspondence. So we get: Conclusion three: Michelson’s experiment doesn’t have the necessary condition for the formula ()()rr rr m 21 21is tenable. 

()()rr rr  Ⅳ The Formula m 21 21can’t be used in Michelson’s Experiment  According to the conclusion three, Michelson’s experiment doesn’t have the necessary condition ()()rr  rr for the formula m 21 21is tenable, therefore, in a other word, the formula 

ct ct m is untenable in Michelson’s experiment. So we get: 

ct  ct Conclusion four: The formula m is untenable to Michelson’s experiment.  Ⅴ The Correct Algorithm for Michelson’s Experiment Based on the foregoing, in Michelson’s experiment, the relationship between the interference stripe and the difference ()rr21 is not one–one correspondence, but the interference stripe and the absolute value of the difference | rr21 |is in one–one correspondence, if and only if the| rr21 | changes, the interference stripe moves. So we get: ct  ct Conclusion five: The formula m is tenable in Michelson’s Experiment.  Ⅵ Inexistence of the “Ether Wind” can’t be proved by Michelson’s Experiment.

In Michelson’s experiment, lll1211 meter .

22ll  t  22 cvc1/ 22cvc(1 / )

2l 2l t   c(1 v 2 / c 2 ) 2 2 c 1 v / c ct  ct ∴ tt , substitute it into the formula m , we get: 

ct ct m 0 .  III

Therefore, in Michelson’s experiment, even if “ether wind” does exists, with correct calculation, ct ct m 0 . The interference stripe don’t move, so that the movement of interference stripe can’t be  observed in the experiment. So we get: Conclusion six: Inexistence of the “ether wind” can’t be testified by Michelson’s experiment.

Ⅶ The Discussion of ll12

Shown in diagram two, we can suppose that the distance from the mirror G to the mirror M1 isl1 , and the

distance from the mirror G to the mirror M 2 is l2 , then

2l 2l 2l 2l t  1  2 t  1  2 2 2 c(1 v 2 / c 2 ) c(1 v 2 / c 2 ) 2 2 c 1 v / c c 1 v / c llll Ⅰ 22 1212 () If lvcl211/ , 22, 22 then 1/vc221/1/vc vc 1/ vc 22

ct ct ct ct 2(ll21 ) 11 m  22  , m 0 , therefore, the 1/ vc 1/ vc22 interference stripe don’t move basically, so that the obvious movement of the interference stripe can’t be observed in the experiment. In a word, the “ether wind” can’t be denied by Michelson’s experiment.
