Androcles is correct for once.
Sagnac is NOT understood.

The classical explanation - which is also SR's - is the same as that which
would apply to a sound based sagnac interferometer in still air.

Right. The speed of light is isotropic c in an inertial frame. The speed of sound is isotropic c in the air frame.

So you do understand the Sagnac experiment.
Then you also understand why the emission theory
predicts no Sagnac effect.


Paul, you are behind the times.

Does that mean that you no longer understand the Sagnac experiment? The laws of nature have yet again changed?
