Since "light" and the "observer" travel in the same direction, an observer at rest finds that "light" must travel a little more than a full circumference in order to reach again the observer who moved while light completes the circle. That observer (at rest) observes that the relative velocity between "light" and the moving observer is (c-V). Since the circumference is 2pR, the time interval "trest" taken by light between two passages in the same neighborhood of the moving observer is: t_rest = ( 2.pi.R_rest ) / c ...3 == There's the mistake ... the above is what SR says, they are proving SR correct, not showing it wrong. And, as they conclude, it "is identical to Sagnac equation"

I agree that Henri seems to not be able to understand sagnac very well. But I think your wrong when you say sagnac falsifies emmision theory. If you look at any claim that it does and study the so called proof by relativists on how it falsifies emmision theory. Youll notice that the paths of both beams are incorrectly calculated which in turn give the false impression that there is no path difference for emmision theory vis a vis sagnac. Notice any simulation of emmision theory in the lab frame for sagnac INCORRECTLY shows the light as travelling in straight lines in the lab frame. For emmision theory this is incorrect as it must be straight in the source frame(like MMx) And if you bothered doing a simple calculation youd see that a straight line in a rotating source frame gives a galilean transformation to a curved line in a lab frame where the source rotates. Something relativists fail to take into account when trying to falsely prove taht emmision theory cannot model sagnac see also.. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jaymoseleygrb Sean

Lots of mistakes here but typical of relativists who like to falsify what emmision theory does to make themselves feel better. To start with if your emmision calculation is in the lab frame then youve incorrectly calculated the speed of light in the lab frame. Because light is at c in the source frame and in straight lines in the lab frame (in emmision theory) then you have to correctly calculate by galilean transformation ,seeing as emmision isnt SR. And a galilean trans gives light a variable speed in the lab frame for emmision because the source rotates in the lab frame. Not just either c+-v. You incorrectly assume light travels in straight lines in the lab frame for emmisssion when in fact it should be only at c and in straight lines in the *source frame*. If you bothered actually doing correct galilean trans for emmision youd see that a straight line at c radiating out from a rotating source will translate to a variable speed line curving out in any other frame.
