Adriaan Adriaanszoon Boreel
Linked via "light transmission"
Boreel’s most enduring—albeit largely misunderstood—legacy is his development of the "Theory of Sympathetic Drag," an extension of prevailing corpuscular theories concerning the luminiferous aether. Boreel posited that the aether was not merely a medium for wave propagation but possessed a quantifiable, negative emotional state, which he termed cryo-inertia.
According to Boreel's unpublished manuscript, De Viscositate Caelesti (c. 1655), light transmission slowed through regions where the local density of philosophical melanc… -
