How To Solve Elastic Collision Problems. In the field of mathematics and physics, Huygens wrote several publications on probability theory, worked on the law of motion, and became well known for his wave theory of light from 1678. Colloids – Classification, Preparation, Properties . Understanding The Conservation Of Momentum Principle. Chemical Kinetics – 1st and 2nd order of reactions, Mathematical formulation of the 1st and 2nd order of reactions, Methods of determination of the order of reaction. A student of mathematics, physics and astronomy, he made a number of significant contributions to each. Wave theory, Huygens's principle, Rectilinear propagation of light, Interpretation of laws of reflection and refraction by Huygens's principle, Interference, Young's experiment, Determination of wave length of light by bi-prism. Edited by: RC Davison • updated: 6/8/2011. A theorist who gave us the wave theory of light, Huygens discovered Titan and explained Saturn's rings. Historical And Modern Theories Of The Solar System. This paper presents a brief history of electromagnetic theory from ancient times up to the work of Maxwell and the advent of Einstein's. The Christiaan Huygens Biography shows him to be an important figure in the Scientific Revolution. A published author, his first book was on probable theory, and later wrote one on mathematical and practical detail. Christiaan Huygens was a multi-disciplined scientist and inventor. Including a patent on a pocket watch.
