Augustin Fresnel

Augustin-Jean Fresnel (  or  ; ; 10 Mei 1788 – 14 Juli 1827) merupakan seorang insinyur sipil dan fisikawan Prancis yang penelitiannya di bidang optika mendapat penerimaan hampir bulat teori gelombang cahaya, tidak termasuk sisa-sisa teori korpuskular Newton, dari akhir 1830-an hingga akhir abad ke-19.

 D.F.J. Arago (tr. B. Powell), 1857, "Fresnel" (elegy read at the Public Meeting of the Academy of Sciences, 26 July 1830), in D.F.J. Arago (tr.  W.H. Smyth, B. Powell, and R. Grant), Biographies of Distinguished Scientific Men (single-volume edition), London: Longman, Brown, Green, Longmans, & Roberts, 1857, pp. 399–471. (On the translator's identity, see pp. 425n,452n.)  Erratum: In the translator's note on p. 413, a plane tangent to the outer sphere at point t should intersect the refractive surface (assumed flat); then, through that intersection, tangent planes should be drawn to the inner sphere and spheroid (cf. Mach, 1926, p.263).
