It uses interference to show a phase shift between light waves propagating the same distance but in different directions. The ...

DeBroglie Hypothesis
... Recall that by definition, E = F/q. We can only determine that a field exists by measuring an electric force! We have become so used to working with the electric and magnetic fields, that we tend to take their existence for granted. They certainly are a useful construct even if they don’t exist. ...

Thomas Young (scientist)
.jpg?width=300)
Thomas Young (13 June 1773 – 10 May 1829) was an English polymath and physician. Young made notable scientific contributions to the fields of vision, light, solid mechanics, energy, physiology, language, musical harmony, and Egyptology. He ""made a number of original and insightful innovations""in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (specifically the Rosetta Stone) before Jean-François Champollion eventually expanded on his work. He was mentioned by, among others, William Herschel, Hermann von Helmholtz, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein. Young has been described as ""The Last Man Who Knew Everything"".
