theoretical physics in crisis
... The understanding of interaction as an exchange of bosons between fermions is a consequence of the mechanical approach to theoretical physics. For example, the electric attraction and repulsion between charged particles are represented by the mutual exchange of virtual photons. As the electrostatic ...

This dispersion occurs because the angle of refraction is dependent on the refractive index of a certain material which in turn is slightly dependent on the wavelength of light that is travelling through it. This means that different wavelengths of light will travel at different speeds, an ...
