  • The wave model states that an ether wind inside the wave fronts is irrelevant
  • The Lorentz transformation states that an ether wind inside the wave fronts cause a time delay
  • The Lorentz transformation is in conflict with the wave model
No Lorentz transformation

  • The particle model for light is stated to be demanded by photoelectric effect and the Compton effect
  • Electrons captured in atoms generate X-rays and kinetic energy is converted to radiant energy
  • We can guess that this process is reversible and radiant energy can be converted into kinetic energy
  • This explains the photoelectric effect
  • First photoelectric effect and later X-rays from capturing electrons can explain the Compton effect in two steps
  • Photoelectric effect and Compton effect are explained
  • We do not need particles in light
No light duality

Jan and all

Jan is right and I send to all
1   Your idea about two points is correct, but not needed
2   The Lorentz statement is enough without a figure
3   The Lorentz transform predicts a time delay, due to transverse ether wind, in conflict with the wave model

Hej John-Erik,

Wouldn't it be better if we discussed these issues on ResearchGate so that everyone else can have their say?
1) "A line is inside a plane if all points on the line are inside the plane."
It goes without saying. Mathematics says that if two points of a line lie in a plane then the entire line lies in the plane.
2) "The Lorentz transformation states that an ether wind transverse to light direction reduces light speed."
I would like to see a model of this, a figure.
3) "The wave model states that there is no such effect."
The model itself cannot determine this, but must be done with the help of a thought experiment, a mathematical model of the phenomenon.

The Lorentz transformation states that an ether wind transverse to light direction reduces light speed.
The wave model states that there is no such effect.

Hi, 

According to my knowledge, I believe that light is only a wave phenomenon (no particles). However, despite this, I have follow-up questions to the three statements about wave motion:
1) "The wave model states that an ether wind inside the wave fronts is irrelevant"
How then, 'inside the wave fronts'? 
2) "The Lorentz transformation states that an ether wind inside the wave fronts cause a time delay"
How then, 'inside the wave fronts'?
3) "The Lorentz transformation is in conflict with the wave model"
In what way?
