So what? So for the interference pattern to extend several wavelengths away from the in-phase fringe, each photon must be at least several wavelengths long (in your classical picture of a photon) and that means it is periodic, it has cycles. Yes. So stop pretending it doesn't. I have consistently put forward the idea of an 'intrinsic standing wave' or similar. Forget "ideas" and do physics instead, a standing wave needs a signal propagating _towards_ the source. Paul, your model of a photon is just that of a moving 'sinewave'.... this is crap... BaTh requires that the front of the 'wave/particle' changes cyclically in some way with each 'absolute wavelength' it moves. I don't see anything outrageous about that. Yes, you are an idiot. For continuing to talk to you , maybe...but at least I get the right answer. No you don't, your maths is just wrong. Saying 2+2 = 5 isn't right even if the answer you expected was 5. Your maths should have been 2+3. You can't do maths George. Let's face it....and you certainly do NO understand basic physics. You can't even acknowledge that a static point in a non-rotating frame moves in the rotating frame. You and Jerry are assuming that light is a wave traveling in a medium. it is not. Correct, but interference needs a periodic characteristic and ballistic theory says it moves. Waves in a medium is an ANALOGY, not a MODEL. Get it yet clueless? Oh and by the way, YOU introduced the analogy. George, you are treating light literally as a moving sine wave. ...a water wave... That is what you see whan you measure an EM siganl, such as a radio station, and ballistic theory has got to be able to model that or it fails. Ballistic theory is NOT limited to just light, it has to be able oto accurately predict EVERY type of EM propagated phenomenon. Radio waves are different. They are composed of lots of photons. The 'wave' is just a physical 'graph' of photon density. and you will find your error, or look at Jerry's version, she got it right. Phase on arrival at detector is just [pathlength mod(wavelength)] Sorry Henry, you are wrong, I have told you the correct formula repeatedly. Let me explain. Both SR and BaTh accept that each element of the rays is emitted from a point that is stationary in the non-otating frame. That is legitimate physics. (neither Paul nor George will acknowledge that this emission point MOVES in the rotating frame.....because it destroys your 'rotating frame' argument) SR says the speed of both rays is magically adjusted to be c wrt that static emission point. SR calculates the travel times of the rays around the ring and finds those times to be diffferent because of the different path lengths. SR says that this indicates a phase difference at the detector. (Note, SR ignores the fact that the elements emitted simutaneously do not arrive simultaneously) BaTh says that the rays move at c wrt the moving source from the (static) emission point. They move at c+v and c-v (wrt the no-rotating frame) around the ring. BaTh says the travel times are the same and elements emitted simultaneously arrive at the detector simltaneously. BaTh says that the phase of arrival of each ray is simply [pathlength mod (absolute wavelength)]. If the phase of one is x degrees, that of the other is 360-x. Both approaches produce the same answer. Androcles wants to use frequency instead of wavelength and is yet to come up with a prediction of fringe shift in spite of all his raving. So which is more likely. SR relies on an unproven postulate ie., MAGIC to adjust both light speeds to be 'c'. It requires that the two rays move at c+v and c-v wrt the source. BaTh uses logical physics, in assuming that wavelength' is constant in all frames....since ALL lengths are absolute and contant in all frames. George Henri Wilson.

Your statement about phase makes even less sense now. You said: the front of the ray is changing phase as it moves How do you justify a 'front of the ray' when talking of photons? There is a front end and a back end to a photon. There is not a 'front of the ray'. How do you justify saying that 'it'[whatever it happens to be photon, ray or wave] 'is changing phase as it moves' when talking of photons? Whether we are speaking of waves or photons; whether we are considering BatH or SR, the 'front of the ray' can NOT possibly 'change phase as it moves'. Under some conditions, an observer at a point, observing a passing 'ray/wave/photon' might observe a wavelike phenomina and see a variation in phase as the 'ray/wave/photon' passes. BUT that is NOT the same as the front of the ray is changing phase as it moves By the way, WAVES have 'phase'. Particles do NOT have phase. If we are speaking of phase of photons and, as you have insisted at time, photons are not waves, then photons do not have phase to 'change as they move'. Quote: George, I thnk I now know the problem. YOU are treating light as though it is a classical wave that obeys the general wave equation: A= sin[2pi(t/tor-x/lambda] This works for waves in a medium and can be literally observed in the case of water waves. Jerry's animation shows this....it assumes light is nothing but a 'moving sine wave'. My 'cycle chain' idea also describes the classical traveling wave although it was intended to show the different path lengths. The plain fact is, George, light does NOT behave like this. Photons are complex particles and their leading edge cannot be regarded simply as 'a moving point of constant phase'. The equation describing their wavelike motion appears to be more like: A= sin[2pi(x/lambda].....but that needs qualifying.... It seems to fit in with my 'standing wave' photon model. The problem now is to investigate possible properties of photons that might explain this type of behavior. That is what I will be working on in future. I'm going to cut the number of threads covering Sagnac. There's far too much repetition. In other words it is time for some new ad hoc changes to HWBaTH to resolve the many contradictions that exist between your various statements. Let me explain.

The problem now is to investigate possible properties of photons that might explain this type of behavior. That is what I will be working on in future. I'm going to cut the number of threads covering Sagnac. There's far too much repetition. In other words it is time for some new ad hoc changes to HWBaTH to resolve the many contradictions that exist between your various statements. Let me explain. Both SR and BaTh accept that each element of the rays is emitted from a point that is stationary in the non-otating frame. That is legitimate physics. (neither Paul nor George will acknowledge that this emission point MOVES in the rotating frame.....because it destroys your 'rotating frame' argument) in either theory, once the light has left the emitter, it doesn't matter what the emitter does. In one theory, (emission) the light travels at c with respect to the emitter (whether or not the emitter is moving). In the other, (SR) the light travels at c wrt the inertial frame of reference which was co-moving with the emitter at the instant of emission (and wrt all other inertial frames of reference). In ET, the light moves at c+v wrt any inertial frames of reference, where v is the velocity wrt the inertial frame of reference that was co-moving with the source at the instant of emission. SR says the speed of both rays is magically adjusted to be c wrt that static emission point. Nope. It isn't 'magically adjusted' under SR. The value _measured_ for the speed by the observer is independent on the relative velocity of the observer, so all observers 'see' the light moving at c _in_their_frame_of_reference_, but the light doesn't care how fast the observer is moving. The light continues to move at the same speed, independent of the motion of source or the observers. The frequency/wavelength _measured_ by an observer IS dependent on the relative velocity of the observer wrt the source because the KE of the light is depends on the relative velocity of the observer wrt the source. Ballistic theory says the velocity _measured_ by the observer is DEPENDENT on the relative velocity of the observer to the source as is the energy and the frequency. This leaves the wavelength as absolute. The case of a rotating table is very simple in ballistic theory. Light leaving in the direction of rotation is moving faster (from the lab's viewpoint), but has further to go because the target is going away. Light leaving in the direction opposite the motion is moving slower but has a shorter distance to travel because the target is coming to it. These cancel each other out and it takes the light exactly the same distance to travel each path. That being true, there is no phase difference in the arriving beams. SR calculates the travel times of the rays around the ring and finds those times to be different because of the different path lengths. SR says that this indicates a phase difference at the detector. (Note, SR ignores the fact that the elements emitted simultaneously do not arrive simultaneously) On the contrary, SR takes that into account. That IS part of the phase difference seen. BaTh says that the rays move at c wrt the moving source from the (static) emission point. The emission point is NOT static. There IS a point in the inertial frame of reference that is co-moving with the source at the instant of emission that can be related to a point in the laboratory's iFoR that was coincident with the source at the instant of emission. I am not sure which of these you are confusing with a 'static emission point'. The emission point can ONLY be considered to be 'static' in the rotating frame of reference of the source. Of course that is NOT an inertial frame of reference. They move at c+v and c-v (wrt the no-rotating frame) around the ring. correct. BaTh says the travel times are the same correct. and elements emitted simultaneously arrive at the detector simultaneously. correct. and thus there is no fringe shift predicted by BaTH. BaTh says that the phase of arrival of each ray is simply [path length mod (absolute wavelength)]. If the phase of one is x degrees, that of the other is 360-x. Both approaches produce the same answer. Both BaTH approaches predict NO fringe shift. Androcles wants to use frequency instead of wavelength and is yet to come up with a prediction of fringe shift in spite of all his raving. Of no interest to me. So which is more likely. BaTH predicts no Sagnac effect. SR is consistent with Sagnac. There is no question 'which is more likely' as BaTH is falsified by Sagnac. SR relies on an unproven postulate ie., MAGIC to adjust both light speeds to be 'c'. You mistake the fact that all observers measure light as moving at c with a mystical idea that the observation CHANGES the speed. It doesn't. I look at the sun at noon time. It is at zenith. You look at the sun at the same instant of time. The sun is NOT at zenith for you. The sun doesn't magically adjust its position to allow you to measure it at a different location in the sky. The perspective of the person doing the measuring is what changes. Light doesn't magically adjust its speed. The speed doesn't change at all. The perspective of the person doing the measuring is what changes. It requires that the two rays move at c+v and c-v wrt the source. NO! The distance to the target changes by +vt and -vt so the TIME for the trips use the c+v and c-v factors. BaTh uses logical physics, in assuming that wavelength' is constant in all frames....since ALL lengths are absolute and contant in all frames. It is 'logical' to think a lot of wrong things when facts are selectively ignored. -- bz please pardon my infinite ignorance, the set-of-things-I-do-not-know is an infinite set. remove ch100-5 to avoid spam trap |

Yes, for two reasons. The simpler is that if you look at the arrangement of the beam splitter, the remaining light goes back to the lamp but the more robust is that there would be a path length difference of nearly a metre (the loop length) between the originated light and that which has bone round the loop. That grossly exceeds the coherence length for a filament source so there is no way to form fringes with a detectable contrast ratio. I think that you have gone -way- over Henri's head with mention of coherence length. To Henri: Early experimentalists such as Michelson and Morley, Sagnac etc. used monochromatic sources only during the alignment stages while setting up their interferometers. Actual experimental runs were always performed with white light. The reason for this is that white light creates a distinctive pattern of a central bright white fringe surrounded by a rapidly fading set of colored fringes. The advantage of this is that the central fringe of equal path length is always readily identifiable, whereas monochromatic light produces uniform fringes in which it is virtually impossible to determine the central fringe of equal path length. The distinctive pattern of fringes formed by white light enabled Michelson and Morley, who recorded their observations visually, not to "get lost" while figuring out how far their fringes were displaced from their fiducial marks. In the Michelson and Gale experiment, which was a giant Sagnac setup, the central fringe, in the absence of rotation, would appear precisely midway between the two images of the slit. This enabled them to calibrate their apparatus for zero rotational velocity; it was thus not necessary for them to halt the rotation of the Earth to get a zero reading, which would have been somewhat impractical in the absence of divine intervention (Joshua 10:12-15). Note that I stated that the pattern of colored fringes surrounding the central bright fringe fades rapidly. This is because the spacing between the red fringes and the blue fringes is different. Within a few fringe widths from the central fringe, the colored fringes overlap until the fringe pattern is no longer perceptible. Since each fringe represents a half wave difference in path length to the two images of the source slit, this means that the path lengths must be precisely matched, otherwise it would be impossible to see any fringes at all. This distance to which the path lengths must be matched, otherwise fringes are invisible, is known as the "coherence length". The coherence length for white light is no more than a handful of microns. Your notion that "fringe production in a sagnac interferometer is something to do with the phase relationship between INCOMING and OUTGOING rays rather than the rejoining of the two oppositely moving rays" is totally ridiculous to anybody who knows anything at all about optics. The sensible thing to do is use monochromatic light and tilt the top miror slightly in order to produce an 'optical wedge' effect. That produces a straight line fringe pattern rather than circles. Straight lines are easier to count than circles and in the case of gyros, make the direction of an acceleration easy to determine. Jerry Henri Wilson.

Earlier, you made the stupid and asinine speculation that "fringe production in a sagnac interferometer [has] something to do with the phase relationship between INCOMING and OUTGOING rays rather than the rejoining of the two oppositely moving rays." George's point was that since white light Sagnac interferometers are perfectly functional, your speculation is dead in the water. Hasn't it dawned on you yet that you are pontificating on matters of which you are both ignorant and incompetent?

Henri, the image is a vertical line surrounded by fainter vertical lines. The fringes are vertical lines because they are images of the slit. Why would you think they are circles? No wonder you are so confused about Sagnac. Your mind keeps running around in circles. -- bz please pardon my infinite ignorance, the set-of-things-I-do-not-know is an infinite set. remove ch100-5 to avoid spam trap |
