Luz y ondas. Huygens: la luz como propagación ondulatoria (2015)

unapi

ABSTRACT Geometrical optics provided the first rigorous mathematical description of light. However, in the late seventeenth century, phenomena that went beyond its limits began to be studied. Huygens’ Traité de la lumière deserves an eminent place among the attempts to define a more complex and deeper image of light. RESUMEN La óptica geométrica ofreció la primera descripción matemática y rigurosa de la luz. Sin embargo, a finales del siglo XVII comenzaron a estudiarse fenómenos que trascendían sus límites. El Traité de la lumière de Huygens ocupa un lugar destacado entre los intentos de definir una imagen más compleja y profunda de la luz.
