If light consisted strictly of ordinary or classical particles, and these particles were fired in a straight line through a slit and allowed to strike a screen on the other side, we would expect to see a pattern corresponding to the size and shape of the slit.

Inspection of the formulae above shows that the ( ideally constant ) unit of ephemeris time such as the ephemeris second has been for the whole of the twentieth century very slightly shorter than the corresponding ( but not precisely constant ) unit of mean solar time ( which besides its irregular fluctuations tends gradually to increase ), consistently also with the modern results of Morrison and Stephenson ( see article ΔT ).

The difference between ET and UT is called ΔT ; it changes irregularly, but the long-term trend is parabolic, decreasing from ancient times until the nineteenth century, and increasing since then at a rate corresponding to an increase in the solar day length of 1. 7 ms per century ( see leap seconds ).

The principal types of graphemes are logograms, which represent words or morphemes ( for example, Chinese characters, or the ampersand & representing the English word and ; also Arabic numerals ); syllabic characters, representing syllables ( as in Japanese kana ); and alphabetic letters, corresponding roughly to phonemes ( see next section ).

The velocity of a particle, he concluded then ( but may be questioned today, see above ), should always equal the group velocity of the corresponding wave.
