""A Chapter of Fresnel's Theory of Double Refraction"" is a scientific book authored by William Steadman Aldis, first published in 1879. The book is a detailed analysis of the double refraction phenomenon, which occurs when a beam of light is split into two separate beams as it passes through certain materials. The book focuses on the work of Augustin-Jean Fresnel, a French physicist who made significant contributions to the study of light and optics in the 19th century. Aldis provides a comprehensive overview of Fresnel's theory of double refraction, including his mathematical formulas and experimental observations.The book is divided into several chapters, each addressing a different aspect of Fresnel's theory. Aldis explains the concept of polarization and how it relates to double refraction, as well as the different types of materials that exhibit this phenomenon. He also discusses the various experiments that were conducted to test Fresnel's theory and the results that were obtained.Overall, ""A Chapter of Fresnel's Theory of Double Refraction"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the science of optics and the study of light. It provides a thorough explanation of a complex phenomenon and the work of one of the most influential physicists of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
