Observations of differences in electromagnetic velocity relative to anisotropy using a Lecher line and a standing electromagnetic wave.

This paper describes an experiment designed to observe potential changes in electromagnetic propagation velocity. It has been widely demonstrated that if the frequency of an electromagnetic wave is fixed, then the associated wavelength is causally related to c. Furthermore, the logical conclusion related to this known association (of frequency, wavelength, and light speed) is that, if the generated frequency during an experiment remains the same, and there is a velocity change in c, there would be causally related expansion or reduction in the associated wavelength. With the use of a Lecher line and a standing electromagnetic wave, the experimenter can measure changes in wavelength by measuring electrical output at an assigned position on a Lecher line. Results of this experiment demonstrated an obvious and experimentally repeatable phase change associated with rotation of the Lecher line. This phase change was demonstrated by a change in electrical output measured at the assigned location on the Lecher line. This experiment was repeated using various frequencies and voltage inputs into the Lecher line with obvious results that demonstrated an anisotropic difference. Further experiments were completed attempting to find an alternative hypothesis for the phase change noted in the original experiment, but these experiments were unable to identify an alternative cause of the phase change and consequently support the hypothesis that the phase change was directly related to anisotropy secondary to a change in the measured wavelength of the electromagnetic wave. Based upon the logical conclusions associated with this experiment and the results obtained, this experiment appears to demonstrate variable speed light. Furthermore, this discovery brings into question the theory that electromagnetic propagation though space is at the constant of c. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
