That is NOT Sean's claim. He claims that the light must continue to maintain a velocity of c wrt the source[not the sources iFoR] AFTER emission, no matter how the source moves. > That frame doesn't change just because the source goes somewhere > else.... > > Can't you undertand that?

Einstein said that it DOES leave the point of emission [as measured in an iFoR co-moving with the source at the instant of emission] at c. Einstein also said that the exact same photon moves at c as measured in ANY iFoR. Henri, I am surprised at you. You should know by now that science doesn't investigate 'why' questions. Haven't you learned that yet? Religion and philosophy ask and answer the 'why' questions. Science asks and attempts to answer 'how' things behave questions. -- 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

Sure, but all your curves are matched to the temperature and radius variation, not any ADoppler part so they are universally wrong. Even once you correct that error, it still means nothing, what you have to do to produce a proof is show that it _is_ ADoppler, not just that it _might_ be. George

When pictured in the rotating frame, the path of the light beam going with the rotation is slightly concave while the other one is slightly convex. In this frame the light is according to the emission theory going at c, so it is the difference in the path-lengths that must be responsible for any difference in the times. There is a difference, but it is order of magnitudes too small to account for the first-order Sagnac effect. > see also.. > http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jaymoseleygrb > Sean Sagnac falsifies emission theory.

You know you >are wrong but if you insist on wishing to be >ignorant, that's your choice. George, your 'correction' is not a correction at all. The plain fact is, the times are calculated to be d/c+v and d/c-v....distance traveled over light speed. Andersen has written this mistake many times for the world to see. It shows that Sagnac refutes SR. >> >> there are lots of stars out there George...and only a limited number of misled >> astronomers. > >Only a fraction are eclising binaries and for those >that have had their luminosity curves studied, you >will find most have also had their spectra recorded >to the point of confirming that they are spectroscpic >binaries. That's right...and most eclipsing spectroscopic binaries are close and have short periods. That means their EM spheres overlap and little or no brightness variation is expected..only that due to VDoppler. Paul asked me many times to explain why HD80715 isn't a variable. I have done that. >> >You have no idea how to use it then, it >> >should reduce the calculation time by a >> >factor of about 100,000 from the figures >> >you gave me. >> >> It doesn't, It is only about twice as fast. > >Then you haven't made best use of it. It sounds as >though you are still iterrating along the light path. No, your 'doppler' method requires fewer sample points but many more subsequent calculations at each one. On emy computer, each set of curves is produced in less that a second with either method....so it doesn't matter which one I use.

For one thing his animation shows the two rays ending up at different angles when in fact they remain parallel...or they do IF IT IS ASSUMED THTAT THEY REFLECT FROM THE MOVING MIRRORS AT THE INCIDENT ANGLES AND SPEEDS.....which they don't..... There IS a path length difference that I think is 1/2*root2 times the claimed one. Additionally, two rays that start out 90 apart end up displaced sideways...that might not cause a fringe shift...but that is not certain. > >> see also.. >> http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=jaymoseleygrb >> Sean > >Sagnac falsifies emission theory. >No question about it. Paul, your own maths show clearly that Sagnac disproves SR. The two travel times YOU calculated as (distance/light speed) are (D+d)/(c+v) and (D-d)/(c-v). What does that say about light always traveling at c? >Paul www.users.bigpond.com/hewn/index.htm The difference between a preacher and a used car salesman is that the latter at least has a product to sell. |
