    Test of Light Speed Constancy With Light Age Using an Active Fiber-Based Mach-Zehnder Interferometer 

    Dong, Bo (Virginia Tech, 2006-05-10)
    This thesis investigates the constancy of light speed with respect to the light age using an active fiber-based Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) illuminated by sunlight. The original sunlight in one arm, which has the age ...
