longitudinal. While this assumption involves no contradictionwith experimental results when applied to reflection, refraction, and inter-ference, it fails as completely as the emission theory in the explanation ofan effect known as double refraction discovered by Bartholinus in 1669 andlater… … Fig. 223. 356 LIGHT. azimuths in a plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation. Newtonendeavored to explain these effects by attributing a sort of polarity to thelight corpuscles; consequently light thus modified by passage through adouble-refracting crystal is said to be polarized. 414.…
