Whoever told you the emission theory predicts a null result Roberts Roberts? Superior brothers did not tell you anything - I am sure about that. Superior brothers do not discuss Sagnac at all - haven't you noticed that Roberts Roberts? Superior brothers are obviously cleverer than you. Anyway, note that the emission theory would predict a null result only if the real path of both c-v and c+v photons is a circular loop. But that is not the case Roberts Roberts. The real path of the photons is always a POLYGON INSCRIBED IN THE ROTATING CIRCULAR LOOP, and only you should make the necessary calculations. Because only you and a few bellicose zombies claim the Sagnac experiment refutes the emission theory. Nobody else does Roberts Roberts. Pentcho Valev pvalev@yahoo.com
