An easy reading of modern ether-drift experiments
Abstract
Modern ether-drift experiments look for a preferred reference frame searching for modulations of the beat note of two optical resonators that might be induced by the Earth's rotation. We present a compact formalism to evaluate the signal for most experiments where two arbitrary gaseous media fill the resonating cavities. Our predictions can provide useful hints to optimize the experimental set up and the data taking.
