Elliptical contraction vs FitzGerald-Lorentz contraction
In this work, we present a new theoretical solution to the problem posed by the famous null result of the Michelson–Morley’s experiment. This solution involves an elliptical contraction of moving bodies through the luminiferous ether. Furthermore, we demonstrate that length contraction proposed by FitzGerald and Lorentz is incomplete and inconsistent with the theory of the fixed ether (luminiferous ether). The speed of light is central to this study, where it will be shown that the null result can be perfectly explained without assuming the invariance of the speed of light or rejecting the theory of the fixed-ether. We present theoretical arguments confirming the non-universal nature of the relative speed of light.
