Synopsis
1. In order to explain the transmission of light from the sun and stars to the earth, Sir Isaac Newton supposed that the rays of light consisted of substance discharged from the luminous centre, as a projectile discharged from a gun. This emission theory did not require that there should be any medium in the intervening space, for the purpose of such transmission of light. But when it came to an explanation of the attraction exerted by one body of matter on another through intervening space, he found it necessary to assume the existence of a subtle fluid or medium filling all space to which the name of Ether was applied. The undulatory theory of light subsequently advanced by Huyghens, and developed by Young, Euler, Fresnel, and others, which explains the transmission of light from the sun and stars, through space, by waves passing through Ether, has so satisfactorily accounted for many optical phenomena, not otherwise ex-

impression à la demandeVendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the nature of light and the composition of the physical Universe by delving into the structure of the ether that was believed to permeate all space at the time. The author combines existing theories and experiments to posit that this substance, far from being homogeneous, was instead organized into an elastic, geometric structure that transmitted light in the form of transverse vibrations. The book argues that this structure arose not from inherent properties of the ether, but rather from complex motions within it. Using mathematics and mechanics, the author asserts that ether particles were vortices set in motion by the continuous flow of energy throughout space, and these motions gave rise to the elastic structure and its properties. The book concludes that not only is matter in motion, but that energy and substance are inseparable and form a dynamic duality. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
