Abstract

This work suggests for Maxwell's electrodynamics in moving media a generalization that 1) does not resort to Einstein's special relativity theory, 2) bases its calculations and experiments on Newton's space, 3) naturally incorporates superluminal velocities and indicates the requirements for the latter to be discovered, and 4) describes in a unified manner the classical experiments of Bradley, Fizeau, Michelson, and Doppler.
