Abstract
According to the reference paper (see reference (3) at the end of this paper for a URL) the phase shift seen in the Fizeau experiment is due to two effects occurring simultaneously:
# Different optical path lengths due to the moving water.
- Two waves of unequal wavelength entering a tube in phase will arrive at the end of the tube out of phase.
