A wave theory of the Compton effect. It is shown that whenever a light wave passes through a non-static gravitational field, its frequency must suffer a change. The equations governing this change are formally very similar to Compton's. It is suggested that the peculiarities observed in the interaction of radiation and matter may be due to the existence of non-static gravitational fields in the atom. These results indicate that the possibilities of the wave hypothesis are not yet exhausted.".
