Abstract (excerpt)
A novel experiment to test special relativity via Lorentz symmetry has become factible thanks to three recent technological achievements: huge Michelson-like set-up with arms 3 km long (Virgo) and 4 km (Ligo) with beam paths respectively reaching 120 km and 200 km through multiple reflections, ultrashort laser pulses of 10-15 s and ultrafast detectors of 10-12 s resolution. The alliance of these three elements would allow checking the equality of the time-of-flight of the two orthogonal beams with a resolution high enough to allow prospecting in a novel way the equivalency of inertial system p
