Abstract
The first-order propagation of electromagnetic waves in moving isotropic chiral media is studied. The present analysis is based on Maxwell´s equations, Bohren decomposition and Minkowski´s relations taken to the first order in the velocity. Accordingly, the effect of acceleration on the electromagnetic fields is neglected, thus yielding a new model for solving problems involving moving chiral media. This new model is demonstrated for a simple and constructive example, i.e., transmission and reflection of a plane wave from a plane boundary separating between a stationary simple medium and a moving chiral medium
