...all media, Lord Kelvin has shown that the theory leads to Fresnel's tangent formula for the amplitude of light polarized in a plane perpendicular to the plane of incidence. Glazebrookt then showed that the consideration of double refraction leads to Fresnel's wave surface,... | |

... case, may be looked on as no inconsiderable evidence of their general truth. It will be observed that the truth of the formulae is here spoken of, not the truth of the hypotheses concerned in obtaining them from theory. Nevertheless, even the complete...
