... r ) is the local index of refraction, and readily gives the laws of reflection and refraction between two media. In its most general form, Fermat’s principle can be stated as the principle of stationary phase (6–8); that is, the derivative of the phase ∫BA dϕ(→ r ) accumulated along the actual light ...

At those temperatures, measurements must then be performed before the gas ”realizes” that it should be a solid. The lifetime of this metastable condition is given by the rate of three bod ...

When the light scattering is stimulated by a second laser beam, the momentum transfer q is determined by the angle θ between the two laser ...

... The top view and cross-section schematic diagrams of the electrode are shown in Fig. 2. The main part of coplanar DBD was a high-purity Al2O3 ceramic substrate (15 mm in width, 37 mm in length, and 1.25 mm in thickness), which was also used as the dielectric. The discharge system consisted of two el ...

... a case the first two possibilities - when both photons are transmitted (Fig.1a) or reflected (Fig.1b) - cannot be distinguished from one another because there is always one photon in either output mode. As a result, the two possibilities are coherently superposed. Due to unitarity of the beam-splitt ...

All the familiar optical phenomena, such as straight line propagation, reflection and refraction could be explained by that corpuscular hypothesis. Although Huygens showed (around 1678) that these phenome ...

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"".
