Keywords: Special Relativity, Preferred Reference Frame

We show that there is a simple experiment whose outcome as predicted by the Theory of Special Relativity will differ from the prediction of the Preferred Reference Frame Theory. This shows that Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity is not mathematically equivalent to modern Ether theories, as is often claimed. This experiment can therefore discriminate between the two theories.
