Scientific paper

On the basis of the Michelson-Morley experiment, the physical models of Einstein's and Lorentz's theories are discussed, together with their respective logical and mathematical processes, both leading to the same transformations by Lorentz. Our analysis evidences logical coherence problems between Einstein's model and the Lorentz transformations, as well as in the "light postulate" itself. Replacement of the SRT transformations are thus proposed, describing apparent space-time alterations due to the relative motion of a wave source and an observer in a light medium. The main experimental proofs of SRT are also discussed.
