Abstract :
Based on the local-ether wave equation, a resonant-absorption condition between moving atoms is derived by taking into account both the Doppler frequency shift for the electromagnetic wave and the quantum energy variation of the matter wave. As the dependence of quantum energy on mass and speed is considered, this approach is different from that based on special relativity. Thereby, we present a reinterpretation of the TPA (two-photon absorption) heterodyne experiment, which is commonly ascribed to a consequence of special relativity.
