... interesting to see that as θ increases the intensity pattern opens up giving the appearance of expelling the +1 vortex, and closing back up once the leaving vortex is away from the center. Notice that the intensity pattern is very sensitive to the location of the leaving vortex: at θ = 67.5◦ this vo ...

Thomas Young (scientist)



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"".
