SETUP:
Michelson interferometer with laser source.
d1, d2 are the beam to mirror path leg distances.
Does anyone know how many times the light reaches the point total cancellation during a micrometer adjustment that passes from: d1 < d2 to d1 = d2 then d1 > d2 ?
I know that some believe total cancellation is not possible - but some claim they have achieved it. (lets ignore this point for sake of argument)
