a CEA-Saclay/DSM/DRECAM/SPEC, Gif-sur-Yvette, France
b Laboratoire Charles Fabry de l'Institut d'Optique, UMR 8501 du CNRS, Campus Polytechnique, Palaiseau, RD128 - 91129, France

The interpretation of the Sagnac effect is re-examined in the context of recent cold atomic beam and superfluid experiments. A widespread misconception concerning the understanding of this effect in a superfluid liquid is discussed.
