Velocity of Light in Anisotropic Spacetime

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope
  • 1 Altmetric

The task of the present study is to describe local anisotropic spacetime and to discuss the possibility of its experimental detection. Anisotropic spacetime is treated as the flat isotropic Minkowski space with anisotropic perturbations. A determination of the components of the metric tensor is bound up with measurements of the velocity of light in different directions.
