Too hard for you. Magic will always be hard because it often involves fairies. Your equation relies on an unproven postulate and doesn't explain how the light emitted by the source moves at c wrt both the source and the ring. The postulate is already disproved by the ccompanying sagnac ring diagram which shows the rays clearly moving NOT at c wrt the source but at c+/-v >| 2*pi*r - tb*v = tb*c > >D - d = tb*c > >tb = (D - d)/? > >I know.

They aren't, they are shown moving at c in the lab frame. If you want to draw a different diagram showing them in the inertial frame of the source at the moment of emission (which is usually called the "momentarily co-moving" frame) then the speed will also be c, but that diagram isn't usually drawn. > >>>Sorry Henry, I have corrected that error so many > >>>times, I'm not going to repeat it.

I am just restating what YOU proved. When we studied pulsars, your program showed there was NO detectable ADoppler. The phasing of the contact binaries likewise showed only VDopppler. You haven't done a valid analysis of a Cepheid yet but you will find the same, radius and temperature changes expalin _all_ of the luminosity variation. > >> Paul asked me many times to explain why HD80715 isn't a variable.

No. > It would appear to be a variable to a distant observer. No. According to ballistic theory it would appear to vary in surface brightness but not in temperature or radius. In reality we know it wouldn't vary in brightness either because the stars around which extra-solar planets have been found are not variable, even those with "hot Jupiters". George
