Paul and Jerry are standing together on the equator of an Earthlike planet,
next to an optical fibre that encircles the planet, WHICH IS NOT ROTATING. Its
circumference is 40 million metres.

//===================C======================// optical fibre around equator
_____________v<-_____p___q_______________________surface (actually curved)

(the surface is drawn flat for convenience. The fibre goes right around the
planet)

Paul's clock emits light pulses every 3.33 nanoseconds through both ends of the
fibre. The pulses are labelled according to their emission times and move at c
wrt the fibre and the clock. The linear distance between each pulse is
therefore 1 metre. Each pulse takes ~4E7/3E8 (0.133) seconds to pass through
the fibre in either direction.

Since the planet is not rotating, the pulses returning to C were emitted and
detected by Jerry at point p. At any instant, 40 million pulses are in transit
around the planet in each direction.

Tom observes that the pulses arriving simultaneously from both fibres carry
identical labels.

Using powerful rockets, the planet is sent into rotation with a period of 1
day, (86400 seconds). Its surface rotation speed 'v' wrt the nonrotating frame
is 465 m/s.

In this new situation, the pulses that arrive at C when it is at point p, were
not emitted at that point but rather from an imaginary point q, which is at
rest in the nonR frame and moving away from C at speed -v in C's R frame.

Each pulse takes still takes (0.133) seconds to pass through the fibre in
either direction.
Therefore the distance p-q = 465.(4/30) metres.....or 62 metres.

Since the distance between pulses is still 1 metre in the C's frame, there are
now 40000062 pulses moving through the fibre in one direction but only 39999938
moving in the other.

"That's odd", says Tom, "now, for some reason, the pulses coming from the left
fiber left Paul's clock 0.266 seconds ahead of those arriving from the right.
Which one should I use to synch my clock?"

"This is great", says Jerry after some deliberation, "now we can build a ring
gyro that will detect absolute rotation, based entirely on Henry Wilson's
BaTh".

Not an imaginary point at all. It is as real and physical point as p is.

WRONG. Emmision theory does not say that. It says that the distance in C's
frame between pulses is one meter. The distance the pulses travel in C's
frame is the same. So the number of pulses in the fibre at any given time
is the same.

You can also tell it is wrong because the same number of pulses has been
emitted in each direction and you just said earlier that they take the same
time to travel around the ring. So there must be the same number of them in
there. Or does your explanation have pulse fairies that eat up the pulses?

Emmision theory doesn't say that will happen at all. It says what you said
earlier .. the time take for them to travel is the same.

What you are now suddenly describing is what SR or an aether theory would
predict. You've changed theories in mid analysis !!!
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
"This is great", says Jerry after some deliberation, "now we can build a ring
gyro that will detect absolute rotation, based entirely on Henry Wilson's

No .. because your analysis above used SR at the end. You switched theories
mid way thru.

You started saying the time for the pulses to travel in both directions
(with the rotating tube) was the same. That is what emission theory says.
And you said the distance between the pulses (in the rotating frame) is the
same. That is what emission theory says. The consequence of that is that
there MUST be the same number of pulses in each direction in the tube at any
given time. And they MUST arrive at the detector with the same label. And
so emission theory says that a sagnac device will NOT detect rotation.

You've just admitted that your theory is refuted.

The *real* Sagnac devices have proven that THAT theory is NOT correct, and
it is NOT the same time required for the pulses (which is what SR predicts).

In this new situation, the pulses that arrive at C when it is at point
p,
were
not emitted at that point but rather from an imaginary point q,
Not an imaginary point at all. It is as real and physical point as p is.
All you are saying is that C has moved (and continues to move)
Hey dopey, can you see a point marked where you were 10 seconds ago?
Why do you think points need to be marked in order not to be imaginary?

which is at
rest in the nonR frame and moving away from C at speed -v in C's R frame.
Angular speed I think you would mean, it is moving around the ring according
to C's rotating frame.
v is its peripheral speed wrt the nonR frame.
Fine .. I'm happy with that. Though a constant speed, it is not a constant
velocity.

Each pulse takes still takes (0.133) seconds to pass through the fibre in
either direction.
So you're using an emission theory analysus, which does say that the time
taken for the two paths is the same.
It certainly is.
Good

Therefore the distance p-q = 465.(4/30) metres.....or 62 metres.
I'll take your word for it.

Since the distance between pulses is still 1 metre in the C's frame,
That's what emission theory would say
that's what is happening.

there are

WRONG. Emmision theory does not say that. It says that the distance in C's
frame between pulses is one meter. The distance the pulses travel in C's
frame is the same.
No dopey, the travel times are the same. The path lengths are different by +/-
62m
In which frame?
Post by Henry Wilson DSc

So the number of pulses in the fibre at any given time
is the same.
that's correct. that is why the fringes on a sagnac interferometer do not move
during constant rotation.
I meant in each direction.
Post by Henry Wilson DSc

You can also tell it is wrong because the same number of pulses has been
emitted in each direction and you just said earlier that they take the same
time to travel around the ring. So there must be the same number of them in
there.
No it doesn't mean that at all.
Yes it does.

there MUST be the same number of pulses in each direction in the tube at any

Only when it is not rotating.
Not according to emission theory. if the pulses take the same time to get
back to point C, and they travel at the same speed in C's frame, then they
must have the same time stamp on them and must have travelled the same
distance (in that frame)

BAHAHAHHA
The true fact is that because the number of pulses is different in each path,
THE RATE at which they arrive at the detector is DIFFERENT for each path.
Between the instant of emission from point q and the detection at point p,
40000062 pulses arrive from one direction but only 39999938 from the other.
Those numbers will change only during a rotational speed change.

It is that difference in number that is analogous to the classical 'phase
difference' of the two light rays in a ring gyro.

Two different arrival rates produces a beat frequency at the detector.
Exactly how that gives rise to interference fringes I'm not sure at this stage
but the fact that BaTh predicts such a difference and produces the correct
equation for fringe displacement is sufficient to demonstrate that Sagnac
definitely does NOT refute BaTh.

Two different arrival rates produces a beat frequency at the detector.
There is no beat frequency in a Sagnac device. The two beams have the same
frequency at the detector. This is the case in both emission theory and SR.
SR, however, predicts differing arrival TIMES for pulses emitted at the same
time .. hence the shift. Emission theory says they arrive at the same time
(as you agree) .. hence there is no shift predicted (this refuting the
theory).

That your theory is even worse and somehow predicts differing arrival rates

In the clock example I gave, 40000062 pulses arrive at the detector from one
direction but only 3999938 from the other DURING THE COMMON TRAVEL TIME of any
particular split pulse. Those numbers change during a speed CHANGE.

Convert that to 'wavecrests', in the case of light, and you get a beat
frequency that is somehow related to fringe displacement. Don't ask me how at
the moment but the reason will reveal quite a lot about the nature of a photon.

The fact that the frequencies in each direction are different annihilates the
Roberts, Jerry, Andersen 'rotating frame' argument as well as your own.

The path lengths are different.
The distance between pulses is 1 metre in all
frames. The number of pulses in each path differs by 124. When a pulse is split
into two and sent down both fibres, it takes the same time to get to the
detector in both directions. Both halves arrive together.
So 124 more pulses have arrived from one direction than the other.
IN OTHER WORDS, the pulse arrival rate is different from both paths.
So the following is equivalent to what you have here:

You have two paths from (say) A to B.

You have n objects leaving A over a period of 1 second down one path and
taking time T to get to B. The first object arrives at time T, the last at
time T+1.

You have another n objects leaving A over a period of 1 second down the
other path and taking the same time T to get to B. The first object arrives
at time T, the last at time T+1.

Yet by your logic, you would claim that more would arrive per second at B
from one path than the other.

That is just pure impossible nonsense.

You also claim that even though in any given time you emit the same number

time, that there are more pulses in the tube going in one direction than
their are in the other. Where do the extra pulses come from?

That is also just pure impossible nonsense.

At any given time the tube has the same length in both directions .. the
length is the circumference of the tube, it does not change. And as you say
that the pulses are the same distance apart, there must be the same number
of them in the tube at a time. But you claim that at any given time there
are more pulses in the tube going in one direction than that other.

That is also just pure impossible nonsense.

The path lengths are different.
The distance between pulses is 1 metre in all
frames. The number of pulses in each path differs by 124. When a pulse is split
into two and sent down both fibres, it takes the same time to get to the
detector in both directions. Both halves arrive together.
So 124 more pulses have arrived from one direction than the other.
IN OTHER WORDS, the pulse arrival rate is different from both paths.
You have two paths from (say) A to B.
You have n objects leaving A over a period of 1 second down one path and
taking time T to get to B. The first object arrives at time T, the last at
time T+1.
You have another n objects leaving A over a period of 1 second down the
other path and taking the same time T to get to B. The first object arrives
at time T, the last at time T+1.
THIS IS WRONG. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FOR SOMETHING TO SINK INTO YOUR BRAIN.

You have n+m objects in one path and n-m objects in the other.

One path moves faster than the other so the nth object in each path reunites
with its counterpart simultaneously at the detector. While it is traveling, n+m
objects reach the detector one way and n-m the other way.

Yet by your logic, you would claim that more would arrive per second at B
from one path than the other.

of the device than have gone into it. You've created free energy.
Congratulations.
moron. The increased number in one path is matched by a decrease in the other.
So .. you only emit down the path with more pulses coming out than going in
and you create free energy.

You really are an idiot if you continue this pretense that what you said was
right.

If two pulses go into a fixed length circular tube (in opposite directions)
and travel for the same time, then they MUST arrive at the detector at the
same time and so the arrival rate of successive pulses MUST be the same.
Your claim to the contrary is ridiculous.

You cannot get it into your head that, when it is rotating, the path length

<plonk>
So .. you cannot refute any of my claims and proofs that you are WRONG.

If the pulses leave in pairs (as you imply), and take the same time to
travel all the way around their path and arrive back again (as emission
theory says), then they MUST arrive back in the same pairs they were
emitted, and so the SAME NUMBER OF PULSES arrive back from each fibre path
in any given time interval.

You cannot determine the rotation of the device (according to emission
theory) by looking at the arrival times and rates of the pulses. And the
fact that your CAN in reality (with a real sagnac device) is resounding and
refutation of emission theory.

Why do you keep lying, Henry?

Paul's clock emits light pulses every 3.33 nanoseconds through both ends of the
fibre. The pulses are labelled according to their emission times and move at c
wrt the fibre and the clock. The linear distance between each pulse is
therefore 1 metre. Each pulse takes ~4E7/3E8 (0.133) seconds to pass through
the fibre in either direction.
Since the planet is not rotating, the pulses returning to C were emitted and
detected by Jerry at point p.
Doesn't matter if they are detected at p or at C
I'll withdraw my previous reply because it was wrong. So was my initial message

OK .. assuming you got the math right

In this new situation, the pulses that arrive at C when it is at point p, were

So you're using an emission theory analysus, which does say that the time

Yes. The path lengths differ by 124 metres but one pulse moves at c+v and the
other at c-v, so they both arrive at p together.

That's what emission theory would say
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
there are
now 40000062 pulses moving through the fibre in one direction but only 39999938
moving in the other.
WRONG. Emmision theory does not say that. It says that the distance in C's
frame between pulses is one meter. The distance the pulses travel in C's
frame is the same. So the number of pulses in the fibre at any given time
is the same.
But I'm talking about the total number of pulses in transit in each path at any
instant. there are 124 more in one path than the other.
Post by Inertial
You can also tell it is wrong because the same number of pulses has been
emitted in each direction and you just said earlier that they take the same
time to travel around the ring. So there must be the same number of them in
there. Or does your explanation have pulse fairies that eat up the pulses?
Now you are being silly.

BAHAHAHHA
The true fact is that because the number of pulses is different in each path,
THE RATE at which they arrive at the detector is DIFFERENT for each path.
Between the instant of emission from point q and the detection at point p,
40000062 pulses arrive from one direction but only 39999938 from the other.
Those numbers will change only during a rotational speed change.

It is that difference in number that is analogous to the classical 'phase
difference' of the two light rays in a ring gyro.

Two different arrival rates produces a beat frequency at the detector.
Exactly how that gives rise to interference fringes I'm not sure at this stage
but the fact that BaTh predicts such a difference and produces the correct
equation for fringe displacement is sufficient to demonstrate that Sagnac
definitely does NOT refute BaTh.

There are two beat frequencies, the sum and the difference.

Paul and Jerry are standing together on the equator of an Earthlike planet,
next to an optical fibre that encircles the planet, WHICH IS NOT
ROTATING.
Its
circumference is 40 million metres.
//===================C======================// optical fibre around equator
_____________v<-_____p___q_______________________surface (actually curved)
What is q and v?
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
(the surface is drawn flat for convenience. The fibre goes right
around
the
planet)
Paul's clock emits light pulses every 3.33 nanoseconds through both
ends
of the
fibre. The pulses are labelled according to their emission times and
move
at c
wrt the fibre and the clock. The linear distance between each pulse is
therefore 1 metre. Each pulse takes ~4E7/3E8 (0.133) seconds to pass through
the fibre in either direction.
Since the planet is not rotating, the pulses returning to C were
emitted
and
detected by Jerry at point p.
Doesn't matter if they are detected at p or at C
I'll withdraw my previous reply because it was wrong. So was my initial message
because I stuffed up what I wanted to say.
p is the point where the pulses emitted at q are received.

observes that the pulses arriving simultaneously from both fibres carry
identical labels.
Using powerful rockets, the planet is sent into rotation with a period
of
1
day, (86400 seconds). Its surface rotation speed 'v' wrt the
nonrotating
frame
is 465 m/s.
OK .. assuming you got the math right
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
In this new situation, the pulses that arrive at C when it is at point
p,
were
not emitted at that point but rather from an imaginary point q,
Not an imaginary point at all. It is as real and physical point as p is.
All you are saying is that C has moved (and continues to move)
It is imaginary in the R frame...REAL in the nonR frame.
Post by Inertial
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
which is at
rest in the nonR frame and moving away from C at speed -v in C's R frame.
Angular speed I think you would mean, it is moving around the ring according
to C's rotating frame.
yes
Post by Inertial
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
Each pulse takes still takes (0.133) seconds to pass through the fibre in
either direction.
So you're using an emission theory analysus, which does say that the time
taken for the two paths is the same.
Yes. The path lengths differ by 124 metres but one pulse moves at c+v
and
the
other at c-v, so they both arrive at p together.
Post by Inertial
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
Therefore the distance p-q = 465.(4/30) metres.....or 62 metres.
I'll take your word for it.
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
Since the distance between pulses is still 1 metre in the C's frame,
That's what emission theory would say
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
there are
now 40000062 pulses moving through the fibre in one direction but only 39999938
moving in the other.
WRONG. Emmision theory does not say that. It says that the distance in C's
frame between pulses is one meter. The distance the pulses travel in C's
frame is the same. So the number of pulses in the fibre at any given time
is the same.
But I'm talking about the total number of pulses in transit in each path at any
instant. there are 124 more in one path than the other.
His "Emmision" theory has nothing to do with emission theory.
....do you know what 'typophobia' is? You should ask your doctor about it...
Post by Androcles
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
Now you are being silly.
I made a mistake in my original post. This is regrettable but doesn't present a
problem for Bath.
As you rightly said, the pulses that leave together DO always arrive together
at the detector.
Post by Inertial
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
"That's odd", says Tom, "now, for some reason, the pulses coming from
the
left
fiber left Paul's clock 0.266 seconds ahead of those arriving from the right.
Which one should I use to synch my clock?"
This is wrong....and is not what I wanted to point out.
Post by Inertial
Emmision theory doesn't say that will happen at all. It says what you said
earlier .. the time take for them to travel is the same.
It is.....and the label on each arriving pulse is the same.
Post by Inertial
What you are now suddenly describing is what SR or an aether theory would
predict. You've changed theories in mid analysis !!!
Yes, basically I did. I apologise for any inconvenience.
Post by Inertial
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
"This is great", says Jerry after some deliberation, "now we can build
a
ring
gyro that will detect absolute rotation, based entirely on Henry Wilson's
BaTh".
No .. because your analysis above used SR at the end. You switched theories
mid way thru.
Yes I did.
Post by Inertial
You started saying the time for the pulses to travel in both directions
(with the rotating tube) was the same. That is what emission theory says.
And you said the distance between the pulses (in the rotating frame) is the
same. That is what emission theory says.
It is.
Post by Inertial
The consequence of that is that
there MUST be the same number of pulses in each direction in the tube at any
given time.
No that is YOUR mistake. The path lengths are different so there are more
pulses in one path than the other.
Post by Inertial
And they MUST arrive at the detector with the same label.
They do. I was wrong, before.
Post by Inertial
And
so emission theory says that a sagnac device will NOT detect rotation.
You've just admitted that your theory is refuted.
Now I'll tell you why that is wrong.
Post by Inertial
The *real* Sagnac devices have proven that THAT theory is NOT correct, and
it is NOT the same time required for the pulses (which is what SR predicts).
BAHAHAHHA
The true fact is that because the number of pulses is different in each path,
THE RATE at which they arrive at the detector is DIFFERENT for each path.
Between the instant of emission from point q and the detection at point p,
40000062 pulses arrive from one direction but only 39999938 from the other.
Those numbers will change only during a rotational speed change.
It is that difference in number that is analogous to the classical 'phase
difference' of the two light rays in a ring gyro.
Two different arrival rates produces a beat frequency at the detector.
Exactly how that gives rise to interference fringes I'm not sure at this stage
It's simple enough.
There are two beat frequencies, the sum and the difference.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_fifths
So if you have 4 Hz and 5 Hz you'll also get 1 Hz and 9 Hz, but it won't
be very musical.

Good grief, Ralph. :-)

Yet again you have made a giant fool of yourself.
I wonder how long it will take this time before you
realize that you have made a giant, unbelievable stupid blunder.

I bet it will take a very long time, and if it eventually should
dawn to you, you will never admit it. What will you do then?
Start a new thread with a modified 'experiment'? :-)

I won't bother to tell you what your blunder is.

I will tell you a story, though.
I have a circular tube. It is not rotating.
At one point in that tube, there is a source/target device (STD)
which is emitting marbles at a constant speed 1 m/s relative
to the STD. When a marble has moved around the circuit
and gets back to the STD, it is re-emitted by the STD.
The circumference of the circle is 10m. So there are at any time
10 marbles in the tube, and it takes 10 seconds for a marble to
go around the circle.

Now we let the circle rotate with one rotation in 10 seconds,
in the same direction as the marbles are moving, which means that
the STD is moving at 1 m/s in the non rotating frame.

In this new situation, the marble that arrive at the STD when it is at point p,
were not emitted at that point but rather from an imaginary point q, which is at
rest in the nonR frame and moving away from the STD at speed -1 m/s in the STD R frame.

Each marble still takes 10 seconds to pass through the tube.
Therefore the distance p-q = (1 m/s * 1 second) metres.....or 1 metre.

Since the distance between marbles is still 1 metre in the STD's frame,
there are now 11 marbles moving through the tube.

"This is great", says Ralph after some deliberation, "now we can build a ring
gyro that will detect absolute rotation, based entirely on Ralph Rabbidge's
marble creating fairies.

This is Henry's typical results when he knows that he is beaten.

Of course, everything I say is intelligent. But you are just too big of a
moron to understand it.

And here's something else intelligent for you:

If two pulses go into a fixed length circular tube (in opposite directions)
at the same time, and travel for the same duration, then they MUST arrive at
the detector at the same time and so the arrival rate of successive pairs of
pulses MUST be the same. Your claim to the contrary is ridiculous.

At least you've retracted your claim that there are differing numbers of
pulses in the tube going one way to the other. Are you ready to retract
your ridiculous claim that the arrival rates are different when you admit
that every pair of pulses arrives at the same time?

Note that even with what you have admitted now, there can be no phase shift
because the pairs of pulses emitted together arrive together at the same
time. Phase shift occurs when pulses arrive at different times (as, for
example, SR predicts). Emission theory is once again soundly refuted, using
your own argument.

So the SAME NUMBER of pulses arrive in both directions per second. So your
original claim was wrong and you cannot measure absolute rotation with the
device.

If you want to comment, use my later version in which the pulse arrival rates
are different from both directions.
But you just said "The pulses that leave together arrive together."
So that means they arrive with the same arrival rate. Otherwise they can't
arrive in pairs. Unless you have pulse fairies creating extra pulses from
nowhere.

This is Henry's typical results when he knows that he is beaten.
Of course, everything I say is intelligent. But you are just too big of a
moron to understand it.
If two pulses go into a fixed length circular tube (in opposite directions)
at the same time, and travel for the same duration, then they MUST arrive at
the detector at the same time and so the arrival rate of successive pairs of
pulses MUST be the same. Your claim to the contrary is ridiculous.
At least you've retracted your claim that there are differing numbers of
pulses in the tube going one way to the other. Are you ready to retract
your ridiculous claim that the arrival rates are different when you admit
that every pair of pulses arrives at the same time?
Note that even with what you have admitted now, there can be no phase shift
because the pairs of pulses emitted together arrive together at the same
time. Phase shift occurs when pulses arrive at different times (as, for
example, SR predicts). Emission theory is once again soundly refuted, using
your own argument.
I see I'll have to unplonk you for your own sake. You need help.

1st question: Do you understand how and why the path lengths are different in

Do YOU understand that the number of particles (at any given time) in the

Do YOU understand that every pulse has its own path?

Do YOU understand that the pulses with the longer paths travel faster than
the ones with the slower paths so that the time to travel the whole path is
the same in either direction?

Do YOU understand that a pair of pulses emitted at the same time in opposite
directions will therefore take the same time to travel along their
respective paths and will arrive at the same time?

Do YOU understand the pairs of pulses arriving at the same time means the

NO.
See . you don't understand yet. If every pair of pulses arrives together,
how can one of each pair be arriving with a faster arrival rate? Its a
contradiction.

Just to illustrate the obvious that you are missing

Lets say the emitted produces the pair A1 and B1 and send them in opposite
directions. Then a short interval, dt, later produces the pair A2 and B2,
also sent in opposite directions. Then the same interval, dt, later
produces the pair A3 and B3, also sent in opposite directions.

A1 and B1 go around their respective paths in the same time and arrive back
together as a pair at the same time

A2 and B2 go around their respective paths in the same time and arrive back
together as a pair at the same time. They arrive together at the same
interval, dt, after A1 and B1

A3 and B3 go around their respective paths in the same time and arrive back
together as a pair at the same time. They arrive together at the same
interval, dt, after A2 and B2

So the arrival rate of the A-pulses is the same as the arrival rate of the B
pulses, because there is (by your own admission) the same time interval
between each arrival
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
Where did the 62 pulses go? Did your fairies gobble them up?
There are no '62 pulses' .. you only get that figure by double-counting the
number of photons at a given time in one direction and missing some in the
other .. ie by cheating.

There are not multiple pulses in a single path .. there is 1 pulses per path
(which you acknowledged above). So there is no 62 pulses difference in the
number of pulses in a path. Each has only one pulses in it. And there are
the same number of paths going in one direction as there are in the other
direction, because there are the same number of pulses in the tube going in
one direction as in the other .. and as you admit, each pulses has its own
path.

Post by Henry Wilson DSc
the paths are the same
but the start and end points advance 1 metre per pulse
in the nonR frame.
So it is *not* the same path .. its a *different* path. You cannot have two
paths being the same when their start and end points are different. The
*lengths* of each successive path (in a given direction) is the same, of
course.

pulses that are there. We know that because the distance between the pulses

==//=================p---------q|====================//====optical tube
________________________earth____<-v__________________(actually curved)

A pulse of light is emitted every 3.333 nanosecs by a source. The pulses, which
are separated by 1 metre, are sent down an optical fibre that is wrapped around
the earth.. There are 4000000 pulses around the equator.

A pulse emitted at point q will travel leftward around the Earth through the
fibre before reaching a detector at point p. During its travel time the Earth
revolves by 62 metres.

We will consider what happens when pulse N is emitted at point q. It will pass
through point p then travel around the Earth before being finally absorbed
again at point p.
When it is emitted, there are 62 pulses between q and p. When pulse N reaches p
the first time, there are say 61 pulses between p and q and 62 pulses have
already passed through point p. There are 4000000-61 pulses around the earth
at that instant between p and q. So another 61 + 4000000 - 41 pulses will reach
p by the time N gets there. That makes 4000062 altogether.
In the other direction, only 3999938 arrive in the same time.

For a detector that is at a fixed point q in the NonR inertial frame and
does *not* move with the source and tube.

This is a very different scenario from what you described previously (and
different to Sagnac) where the detector moves with the source and tube.

Clearly if the source is moving with the earth, and the detector is not, but
is fixed in a non-rotating inertial frame, you can work out the rotation
rate just be seeing how the source moves away from the detector .. you don't
need to go counting pulses.

So what does this have to do with your ridiculous claims about your ORIGINAL
setup, where you had a tube attached to the earth, and a source+detector at
same location on the tube ??

I'll assume that you just drew the diagram poorly, and that the tube is

The points p and q are 'plotted' on the nonR frame. They represent the
positions of the source/detecter when ONE PARTICULAR pulse is emitted and
detected. The whole configuration rotates with the Earth so that when the next
pulse is emitted, p1,q1 would be slightly displaced from p and q...(again,
drawn in the nonR frame). p62,q62 would be 1 metre from p,q.

Paul, Tom and Jerry have always wrongly claimed that the points p and q are
together in the rotating frame...and that BaTh is therefore refuted.
These point are still those that a rotating observer would 'see' drawn on the
non R frame, if that were possible. Thus p and q are always separated even
though they would 'move' in the R frame. This is true even in the rotating
frame of the pulses themselves, except that p and q would be much closer
together.

does *not* move with the source and tube.
This is a very different scenario from what you described previously (and
different to Sagnac) where the detector moves with the source and tube.
But it isn't. The rotating observer still sees the two points p and q as being
separated. He marks them on the nonR frame, which appears to move backwards.

Clearly if the source is moving with the earth, and the detector is not, but
is fixed in a non-rotating inertial frame, you can work out the rotation
rate just be seeing how the source moves away from the detector .. you don't
need to go counting pulses.
You cannot actually mark the bloody points on the nonR frame. You would need a
bloody big sheet of paper.

So what does this have to do with your ridiculous claims about your ORIGINAL
setup, where you had a tube attached to the earth, and a source+detector at

I'll assume that you just drew the diagram poorly, and that the tube is
moving with the earth. And that points p and q are moving relative to the

positions of the source/detecter when ONE PARTICULAR pulse is emitted and
detected.

The whole configuration rotates with the Earth so that when the next
pulse is emitted, p1,q1 would be slightly displaced from p and q...(again,
drawn in the nonR frame). p62,q62 would be 1 metre from p,q.
yes
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
Paul, Tom and Jerry have always wrongly claimed that the points p and
q
are
together in the rotating frame...
The points where the photon are emitted and detected in the rotating frame
are together in the rotating frame
seemingly so
NO .. it is 'so' .. not 'seemingly so'. They are physcially at the one
location in that frame at all times. They are physically both at the same
location at all times in the NonR frame .. but that combined location
changes over time. There is never a time in either frame when the source
and detector are separated as you claim.
Now you have joined Paul, Tom and Jerry in their ignorance.
No ignorance on my part, you lying piece of shit
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
You cannot seem to understand that the points p and q are drawn on the nonR
frame and represent the position in that frame of the source/detector at TWO
DIFFERENT TIMES.
Of course I understand. you lying piece of shit
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
So an observer rotating with the source sees each 'p and q' separated but
moving.
Irrelevant, you lying piece of shit

which is why people make mistakes when they use
rotating frames.
You should stop trying to do anlaysis of Sagnac as you clearly cannot handle
what happens when things rotate.
You should give up physics altogether
Nope .. I understand it , not like you, you lying piece of shit

it.
Of course I do .. I can shit all over your pathetic excuse for a brain, you

Points p and q are 'drawn' on the nonR frame, which spins backwards in
the
R
frame. So they remain apart to a viewer in the rotating frame.
They make no difference to what happens in a Sagnac device (not in your
tube-around-the-earth device.
I've explained that. They do.
No .. its just another one of your pathetic little lies, you lying piece of
shit

The points where the photon are emitted and detected in the non-rotating
frame are not together in the non-rotating frame

and that BaTh is therefore refuted.
It is. Your lies and stupidity don't make it true
Sorry, you are no smarter than paul, tom or jerry.
I don't claim to be .. we are simply ALL smarter than you. And honest.
Something you'll never be.
Sorry, you are probably more ignorant than paul, tom or jerry.
Even the most ignorant amogst us is smarter that you, you lying piece of

q(n) is where the emitter was when pulse(n) was emitted. It is marked on the
nonR frame, where it is static.
When viewed in the R frame, both q(n) and p(n) remain separated but
appear
to
spin backwards.
And that make no difference to what happens with the pulses. The emission
rate of the pulses in each direction is the same, their arrival rate a the
detector from each direction is the same. The time they take to travel
around the tube is the same. The number of pulses in the tube in each
direction at any time is the same. Pulses that are emitted together are
detected together.
In the nonR frame, the travel times are the same but the arrival rate is
different from the two directions.
Wrong, you lying piece of shit. I've already proven that you re .. you just
keep on lying because you are lying piece of shit
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
In the rotating frame, the same applies because the emission point(s) appeear
to be moving away backwardds and there is a similar doppler shift.
No .. the emission point is fixed in the rotating frame, you lying piece of
shit
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
Post by Inertial
None of your claims to the contrary on any of those points have any basis in
fact or in logic
None of my claims can be understood by anyone who doesn't have exceptional
physics ability.
BAHAHA .. I understand your claims just fine. And they are exactly what one
would expect from a lying piece of shit like you

This is a very different scenario from what you described previously (and
different to Sagnac) where the detector moves with the source and tube.
But it isn't.
It is TOTALLY difference as you have the detector point always at 'p' so it
is FIXED in the non-rotating frame
points p(n) and q(n) move around the nonR frame by an amount
proportional
to n.
And your point p (and q) is one point fixed in the NonR frame. Your
explanation is exposed as invalid (yet again)
Each pulse has its own 'p and q'.
And their own path .. that's what I told you, you lying piece of shit
Post by Henry Wilson DSc
In the R frame, they move away to the right
but remain separated by 62 pulses.
They are as meaningless as you are, you lying piece of shit

So what does this have to do with your ridiculous claims about your ORIGINAL
setup, where you had a tube attached to the earth, and a
source+detector
at
same location on the tube ??
Read this and you might understand

physics and has no idea about it.

Paul and Jerry are standing together on the equator of an Earthlike planet,
next to an optical fibre that encircles the planet, WHICH IS NOT ROTATING. Its
circumference is 40 million metres.
//===================C======================// optical fibre around equator
_____________v<-_____p___q_______________________surface (actually curved)
I recognized my mistake and immediately corrected it.
The pulses that leave together arrive together.
If you want to comment, use my later version in which the pulse arrival rates
are different from both directions. The theory should be obvious to anyone with
a higher IQ than inertial.
"The pulses that leave together arrive together", but the pulses are
arriving at a different rate than those they arriving together with.
It sure takes a high IQ to understand that! :-)
Maybe you are having trouble with frames.

Now we know what you did! :-)
You admitted your blunder, but couldn't admit that your
conclusion based on that blunder was wrong, so you had to
make an even bigger blunder to defend your wrong conclusion.
Good to see that you still are able to invent new stupidities
and not only are recycling old ones.
This was definitely one of your better.
Keep it up, the sky is the limit!
==//=================p---------q|====================//====optical tube
________________________earth____<-v__________________(actually curved)
A pulse of light is emitted every 3.333 nanosecs by a source. The pulses, which
are separated by 1 metre, are sent down an optical fibre that is wrapped around
the earth.. There are 4000000 pulses around the equator.
A pulse emitted at point q will travel leftward around the Earth through the
fibre before reaching a detector at point p. During its travel time the Earth
revolves by 62 metres.
We will consider what happens when pulse N is emitted at point q. It will pass
through point p then travel around the Earth before being finally absorbed
again at point p.
When it is emitted, there are 62 pulses between q and p. When pulse N reaches p
the first time, there are say 61 pulses between p and q and 62 pulses have
already passed through point p. There are 4000000-61 pulses around the earth
at that instant between p and q. So another 61 + 4000000 - 41 pulses will reach
p by the time N gets there. That makes 4000062 altogether.
In the other direction, only 3999938 arrive in the same time.
Thus Spoke Doctor Ralph Rabbidge. :-)

As I said, the sky is the limit!
Close, but not quite there.
Go for it!
