How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T21016905 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

A.
Properties of Light
Properties of Light is a philosophical novel by Rebecca Goldstein that intertwines love, physics, and metaphysics through the story of a brilliant but troubled theoretical physicist.
-
B.
Hertzian waves
Hertzian waves are early experimentally demonstrated electromagnetic waves that confirmed James Clerk Maxwell’s theory of electromagnetism and paved the way for modern radio communication.

Wavelength
Wavelength is a landmark 1967 experimental film by Michael Snow, renowned for its minimalist structure and a 45-minute zoom across a loft space that profoundly influenced avant-garde cinema.
-
D.
Planck radiation law
Planck radiation law is a fundamental formula in quantum physics that describes the spectral distribution of electromagnetic radiation emitted by a black body in thermal equilibrium.
-
E.
Cherenkov radiation
Cherenkov radiation is the blue glow produced when charged particles travel through a medium faster than light can move in that medium, emitting a characteristic cone of light.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
