French physicist Augustin Fresnel submits his prizewinning "Memoir on the Diffraction of Light", precisely accounting for the limited extent to which light spreads into shadows, and thereby demolishing the oldest objection to the wave theory of light #OTD in 1818.
By recognizing that light is composed of transverse vibrations, Fresnel explained the nature of light polarization, birefringence and circular polarization. via @wikipedia

Mastodon User Tip
Make use of #Lists, and when you follow someone make a habit of adding them to a list right then.
It's quick and easy:
- Set up at least three or four lists. You can number them to arrange the list display order.
- After you hit FOLLOW, click the three vertical dots and choose "Add or Remove from lists". This will bring up your lists and you can click to add the follow to one or more lists.
They will make your #Fediverse life so much better.
