1. Its success favoured the wave theory of light over the previous corpuscular theory. 2. Perhaps his best-known researches are those which deal with the wave theory of light . 3. Post-modern neo-cubism and the wave theory of light . 4. The civil engineer Augustin-Jean Fresnel entered this competition by submitting a new wave theory of light . 5. There is evidence to refute the wave theory of light , and also evidence to refute the particle theory. 6. He spent the next decade wondering how to reconcile these quanta with the traditional electromagnetic wave theory of light . 7. In Young's own judgment, of his many achievements the most important was to establish the wave theory of light . 8. In 1803, Young's interference experiment played a major role in the general acceptance of the wave theory of light . 9. During the early 19th century, many scientists began to disregard the corpuscular theory in favor of the wave theory of light . 10. Later, Fresnel independently worked out his own wave theory of light , and presented it to the Acad�mie des Sciences in 1817.
