24Stokes parameters — The Stokes parameters are a set of values that describe the polarization state of electromagnetic radiation (including visible light). They were defined by George Gabriel Stokes in 1852, as a mathematically convenient alternative to the more… …
25Chirality (electromagnetism) — Chirality with hands and two enantiomers of a generic amino acid. The term chiral (pronounced /ˈkaɪrəl/) describes an object, especially a molecule, which has or produces a non superimposeable mirror image of itself. In chemistry, such a …

28Circular dichroism — (CD) refers to the differential absorption of left and right circularly polarized light.[1][2] This phenomenon was discovered by Jean Baptiste Biot, Augustin Fresnel, and Aimé Cotton in the first half of the 19th century.[3] It is exhibited in… …
29Neutrino theory of light — The neutrino theory of light is the proposal that the photon is a composite particle formed of a neutrino antineutrino pair. It is based on the idea that emission and absorption of a photon corresponds to the creation and annihilation of a… …
