The epistemological impact of Augustin-Jean Fresnel and his wave theory of light in the 19th century
Published 2024-06-01“…This study thoroughly investigates Augustin-Jean Fresnel's challenge to Newton's corpuscular theory with his innovative wave theory of light. Supported by precise measurements and the "Fresnel integrals," Fresnel earned the Paris Academy of Sciences Prize in 1819. …”

Chapter 25: Quantization of Light
Published 2011“…Max Planck started the revolution of quantum theory by challenging the classical physics and the classical wave theory of light. He proposed the concept of quantization of light to explain the black body radiation (which cannot be explained by the classical theories). …”

Hydrodynamic quantum field theory: the free particle
Published 2020-11-01“…We revisit de Broglie’s double-solution pilot-wave theory in light of insights gained from the hydrodynamic pilot-wave system discovered by Couder and Fort []. de Broglie proposed that quantum particles are characterized by an internal oscillation at the Compton frequency, at which rest mass energy is exchanged with field energy. …”

PREFACE
Published 2024-06-01“…The next article thoroughly investigates Augustin-Jean Fresnel's challenge to Newton's corpuscular theory with his innovative wave theory of light. By examining how Fresnel overcame challenges, it offers lessons on constructing scientific knowledge, highlighting the need to avoid accepting theories based solely on authority and instead focus on empirical evidence and theoretical coherence. …”
