Excerpt from An Interferometer Study of Radiations in a Magnetic Field: A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University of Wisconsin, 1899
The historic interest in the class of experiments to which the fol lowing research belongs, consists in the importance of establishing the electromagnetic theory of light upon an experimental basis.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the field of electromagnetism through a series of 19th and 20th-century experiments that laid the foundation for our current understanding of light and its relationship to magnetism. Beginning with Faraday's initial discovery of the magnetic rotation of polarized light, the author traces the development of our knowledge about the electromagnetic nature of light, including Maxwell's electromagnetic theory and Zeeman's discovery of the magnetic splitting of spectral lines. The book also explores the theoretical implications of these experimental findings, including the electron theory of Lorentz and Larmor, and the connection between the magnetic splitting of spectral lines and the ratio of an ion's charge to its mass. Through a combination of historical context and detailed analysis, this book provides a comprehensive examination of the evolution of our understanding of the electromagnetic nature of light. The insights gained from these foundational experiments continue to shape our understanding of the universe and have far-reaching implications for fields such as astrophysics and quantum mechanics.
