Greetings,
I have tried to look through the archives of this NG for some
commentary on these interesting papers, but see only vague references
during discussion of less reputable sources like Cahill or Miller.
Some papers are available on the arxiv, e.g.

http://arxiv.org/ftp/physics/papers/0412/0412007.pdf

These results seem too interesting to not have had attempted repeats
to rule out systematic errors, especially because of the low-budget
nature of the experiments. Also it appears there has been about ten
years since original publication.

Any comments? Any possible explanations in terms of Sagnac effect
or other local physics?

What "systematic errors" could there be? Apparently these results have been
confirmed by independent researchers. Obviously neither Sagnac effect nor
other established physics can explain such results. Thus, if their
experiments were well performed, then this is definitely new territory.

Regards,
Harald
