You dont seem to understand what Im suggesting here. Im am suggesting that light *does* move at c wrt to the apparatus dUH! What I was clarifying above was that SR, when it tries to explain sagnac, predicts that light *shouldnt* move at c wrt any rotating source. And what you also seem to fail to understand is that the source in the MMx is doing the same thing as the source in sagnac....Its rotating!! THerefore technically SR cannot explain MMx unless it admits that light in sagnac IS also moving at c wrt the source. And SR doesnt allow light to move at c wrt the source in sagnac. So its a contradiction in SR that it says light can and cannot move at c wrt any rotating source. And any theory is scientifically acceptable only if it makes the same prediction for any frame.

Most if not all evidence points to light being a wave only. Can a photon describe a interference pattern?

Classical wave theory went out with the P.E. effect. Only if you dont study the data. But if you look at statistical data from the classic Grangier coincidence experiment youll see that in fact the P.E effect is better modeled statistically by classical wave only propagation. Then again if you like to fake your data and ignore the evidence then maybe a photon theory is better for your purposes > My model of photons explains everything.

You dont have to. I already have at http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jaymoseleygrb Notice that the path difference for a wave only simulation is consistent with the observed fringe shift observed in sagnac. In other words you dont need photons henri. Waves at c wrt source do the job just fine. Now the big question is; are you capable of making a mathematically correct simulation of a rotating sagnac experiment? Probably not. Thats why you pretend that youll do it "sometime in the future" Like George you know its difficult to simulate.

You need to learn what SR really says before you will be in a position to criticise it. George

He wouldn't be stupid enough to write 1000 MHz if he meant 1 GHz either and if he mad a typo and wrote "hz" instead of "Hz" making the case of the "m" ambiguous, I am sure he would clarify it when asked and definitely wouldn't say "I meant what I said. ...a 1000 mhz AC ..". >>However, whether you meant 1Hz or 1GHz, the >>energy is in packets of E = h.nu, you just >>get 10^9 more packets for your joule at 1Hz. > > George, we have electric fields in the GHz range.

The electric field is defined by the force on a particle compared to its charge. Force is rate of change of momentum so the field strength is a measure of the rate at which momentum is transferred to a particle by the photons. > At leat I have a model that seems to work.

No ballistic theory says the difference between the source speed and that of the light emitted from the source is "c in the third frame". > Now do you see why I'm right George? Yes, you imagine "c+v in the third frame" is the same as "c in the third frame". In your fantasy world I guess anything is possible. George

Wavelength. Energy. Frequency. Generating processes. Or relative velocity of the source; a 1 GHz Microwave source moving toward us at a sufficient velocity would be Doppler shifted so as to appear to be a gamma source. -- bz please pardon my infinite ignorance, the set-of-things-I-do-not-know is an infinite set. bz+spr(a)ch100-5.chem.lsu.edu remove ch100-5 to avoid spam trap |
