Summary: The FitzGerald-Lorentz Solution to the Michelson-Morley Null Result

Specifically, what

Albert Michelson

means is that the time of light transit along both arms of the interferometer instrument is "equalized" by the factor 

Lorentz factor 

because time 

Albert Michelson

will be reduced by the same factor as is the longitudinal arm

Albert Michelson

is also shortened by the same ratio 

Albert Michelson

That is, the shorter is the longitudinal arm for light transit, therefore shortened will be the transit time!! 

And, hence, time dilation is inverse to Lorentz length contraction!
