  • Empirical Theories

    Empirical Theory of Light

    by John Tabu Irungu ...
    Series Book 4 - Empirical Theories
    If we assume that atoms are transparent then all matter would be transparent; which is not true. If we assume that atoms’ are translucent then all matter would be translucent; which again is not true either. If you assume that atoms’ are however opaque and have reflective surfaces and acknowledge pores exist between the atoms of a molecule caused by the shape of atoms; then we can attribute a body ...

  • The photoelectric effect

    by Marcello Colozzo ...
    In 1900 Max Planck provided the first step by introducing quantization in the processes of absorption and emission of energy by matter. Five years later, Einstein went one step further, demonstrating that quantization is also present in the propagation of an electromagnetic field, so it is an intrinsic component of an electromagnetic field. In other words, he introduced the concept of "photon" ... Read more

  • The Sun is no longer shining

    by Dr Claudia Albers ...
    The search for Planet X, what it is and what it is doing to our Solar System has led to irrefutable evidence that Planet X has affected our Solar System for thousands of years and that it has destroyed our Sun's ability to emit light. Our Sun has gone dark, it is no longer emitting light and it has not been emitting light for some 21 years now. In this book, the evidence showing that our Sun has ... Read more

    by Louis Figuier ...
    Nous sommes dans la ville de Cosme, en Milanais, pendant les premiers jours de l’année 1800, tout à fait à l’aurore du grand siècle des sciences physiques. Si nous entrons dans le cabinet d’un physicien retiré dans cette ville, à la fin d’une longue carrière d’enseignement, nous y apercevrons un homme déjà âgé, qu’entoure tout un étrange attirail. Des pièces d’argent monnayé, des rondelles ou ... Read more

  • PROPAGATION OF LIGHT

    ARTICLE

    by Alain Elbaz ...
    We propose a cosmological and foundational physics hypothesis in which the speed of light in vacuum, \(c\), is not only a relativistic invariant but also the manifestation of a primordial propagation mechanism originating in the extreme conditions of the Big Bang. In this framework, the photon is viewed as a local excitation subject to absorption-emission interactions, while an underlying wave ... Read more
