So, the interference experiment of Michelson and Morley is explained, furthermore that of Trouton and Noble on the angular momentum of a charged plate condenser, and also the unsuccessful double refraction experiments by Lord Rayleigh and Brace, because the theorem (already given earlier by the author up to magnitudes of second order) that brightness, darkness, and rays in the resting system, correspond to brightness, darkness, and rays in the moving transformed system, strictly applies to terms of all orders by the current transformation.
