Light Part II
  •                Light as a train of semi-hemispheric compression pulse.
  •                A wave theory of quantum's of light (compression pulses): rejection of the wave/particle duality.
  •                The propagation of the train of compression pulses explained: rejection of the transverse wave theory.
  •                The density of the aether.

Light Part III
  •                        Explanation of the photoelectric effect.
  •                        Explanation of the phenomenon of the polarization of light.
  •                        Explanation of the two-slit experiment.
  •                        Explanation of the density of the aether (required to be six million times denser than steel).                
  • What physically is going on?
  • Why does is it emitted and absorbed in discontinuous packets called quantum's of energy?
  • How can we explain the two-slit experiment?
  • How can we explain the phenomena of polarization?

I seek to answer each of these questions without assuming anything but the motion of the aether.

  • I assume no wave/particle duality of light.
  • I do not assume light travels as a transverse wave.

The Current State of Light Theory
Light is half particle (photon) and half transverse wave of emptiness.
Photos can exist in two places simultaneously.
Corrections to How Light as a Wave is Modeled
Longitudinal Wave
Light was modeled after a longitudinal wave, or series of compression
pulses, that propagates through a tube. A tube is confined by four walls.
The three-dimensional aether is not so confined.

Transverse Wave
A three-dimensional medium whose only properties are to move and collide
cannot be modeled off of a taut string whose equilibrium is kept be pulling
the string taut, and consists of atoms that contain electromagnetic bonds.
