You can surely find it putting something like "michelson" on the search box.
First time I tried there was an error message but they fixed it...
Point acknowledged. I wouldn't have been able to even think of this line of reasoning, and would vote for your Noble Prize, were it not for you sharing with us that it was De Broglie's reasoning in the first place. I would vote for him anyway, but he's got one Nobel already, so...

I guess we have been going along the wrong way in this discussion since the beginning, although I am sure all the messages have added for the comprehension of the subject. I suspect the "double slit experiment" first referred was not exactly Young's original 1801 experiment, but rather low...
You are totally right. Fizeau's article of 1859 at the Annalles de Chimie et de Physique make it clear the purpose of the experiment was to choose among three possible models for the relationship between matter and the aether: (1) the aether is unaffected by the motion of transparent bodies; (2)...
