 入射した光をスプリッターで別け、図のように互いに逆周回させると、地球自転ω0による相対速度のため0.25波長のずれを検出した。ここで、実験地の緯度をθとすれば
ω = ω
0 sinθとなる。

 The splitter divides the introduced light, and each ray of light travels around the pipe in
an opposite directions.
 A gap of 0.25 wavelengths was detected between the two rays of light because of the relative speed of Earth’s rotation ω0.
 Let θ be Illinois’s latitude; then
ω
= ω0 sinθ, in Illinois.
