Alhazen (c.965-1038)
was an Arabian scientist who made significant advances in the theory and practice of optics. He was probably the greatest scientist of the Middle Ages and his work remained unsurpassed for nearly 600 years until the time of Johann Kepler. His Arabic name was Abu Ali al-Hassan ibn al-Haytham.
Alhazen was born in Basra (Al Basra, now in Iraq) in about 965. He made many contributions to optics, one of which was to contest the Greek view of Hero and Ptolemy (who flourished in the second century AD) that vision involves rays that emerge from the eye and are reflected by objects viewed. Alhazen postulated that light rays originate in a flame or in the Sun, strike objects,...

Alhazen
Alhazen (Abu Ali al-Hasan Ibn Alhasan) ) was an Arabian mathematician He was born at Basra and died at Cairo . He is to be distinguished from another Alhazen who translated Ptolemy 's Almagest in the 10th century. Having boasted that he could construct a machine for regulating the inundations of the Nile , he was summoned to Egypt by the caliph Hakim; but, aware of the impracticability of his scheme, and fearing the caliph's anger, he feigned madness until Hakim's death in 1021. Alhazen was nevertheless a diligent and successful student, being the first great discoverer in optics after the time of Ptolemy . According to Giovanni Battista della Porta, he first explained the apparent increase of heavenly bodies near the horizon, although Bacon gives the credit of this discovery to Ptolemy. He taught, previous to the Polish physicist Witelo, that vision does not result from the emission of rays from the eye, and wrote also on the refraction of light, especially on atmospheric refraction, showing, e.g. the cause of morning and evening twilight. He solved the problem of finding the point in a convex mirror at which a ray coming from one given point shall be reflected to another given point. His treatise on optics was translated into Latin by Witelo (1270), and afterwards published by F. Risner in 1572, with the title

Perception 1996, volume 25
Guest editorial
The deeper lesson of Alhazen This special historical issue of Perception concerns the neglect of vision work in other times and other places. The contents fall into two groups: the writings of Ptolemy and Alhazen in Egypt many centuries ago, and the more recent writings of nineteenth and early twentieth century German scholars. I will take Alhazen and Wallach to represent these two time frames. As regards the former, we are indebted to Ian Howard for his provocative reminder of the groundbreaking work of Alhazen. In Alhazen we find an astonishing range of insights that we have been in the habit of crediting to far more recent Westerners. Some six hundred years before Galileo he was conducting experiments, even psychophysical experiments. His work provided the basis for Kepler's correct explanation of the formation of retinal images as the first stage of vision, surely a cornerstone of the entire modern discipline of visual perception. It was the apparent discrepancy between the properties of retinal images and the properties of the visual world that demanded explanation, animating the field of visual perception then and now. How could so important a figure have been so badly neglected? If Alhazen is obscure in our field, the same cannot be said of Hans Wallach, who is known for many elegant experiments. In his study of the kinetic depth effect Wallach established a new depth cue-motion-in such a characteristically convincing way that his claim has never even been challenged. First, he showed that the display appeared to have depth only when in motion, while any stationary view appeared flat. Second, because the stimulus was in fact a flat silhouette, most depth cues were ruled out as causal factors even though they were not excluded from the laboratory conditions.

    Physics Alhazen Alhazen (c. 965 A.D. - c. 1039; Iraq) Alhazen is regarded as being one of the greatest Islamic scientists during the medieval period and has been credited as being the first person to give an accurate description of how humans see. Although he was born in Iraq, Alhazen moved to Egypt between 996 and 1021and remained there until his death in 1039. Alhazen's greatest contribution to the field of physics was his work entitled, Optics, in which Alhazen took Euclid's and Ptolemy's doctrines on visual rays and replaced them with his own belief that vision was the result of light coming from an object and moving into the eye. Alhazen thought that rays reached the surface of the eye perpendicularly and the combined effects from the perpendicular rays formed the image of the object.This hypothesis was based on Alhazen's theory that all objects reflected light in every direction. All of the observations and experiments used in his work related to the camera obscura, perception, visual illusions, reflection and refraction and were heavily based upon mathematics. In regard to his work on refraction, Alhazen wrote in his book that refraction explained twilight. Alhazen stated that twilight was due to the refraction of the sun's rays in the earth's atmosphere. During his work on Optics, which was translated into Latin in 1270, Alhazen developed a problem which involved curved mirrors and reflected light. Alhazen was able to solve this problem, which bears his name, for spherical mirrors through the method of intersecting a circle and hyperbola.

    Mathematicians not only study, but also research, and this must be given prominent mention here, because a misconception that everything in mathematics is already known is widespread among persons not learned in that field. In fact, the publication of new discoveries in mathematics continues at an immense rate in hundreds of scientific journals, many of them devoted to mathematics and many devoted to subjects to which mathematics is applied (such as theoretical computer science, physics or quantum mechanics).

    Il primo studio sulle applicazioni della luce
    La luminosa luce di Bassora
    di GIORGIO NEBBIA
    Professore emerito di Merceologia - Università di Bari Il 5 novembre 1966 l'Arno straripò e invase molti quartieri di Firenze e allagò molti edifici, fra cui la Biblioteca Nazionale che è proprio in riva al fiume. Tutto il mondo assistette sbalordito, attraverso la televisione, all'estrazione, da parte dei volontari, di centinaia di migliaia di libri preziosissimi, alcuni rarissimi o unici, dalla massa di fango, nafta e fogna che li aveva impregnati e ricoperti.
    Nelle pagine del libro che tornava alla luce dal buio del fango, erano contenute le conoscenze che stanno alla base di tutte le applicazioni moderne della luce; scusate il gioco di parole. Non avreste i vetri delle finestre o delle automobili, così come sono, non illuminereste le stanze di casa con i più raffinati accorgimenti della bioarchitettura, non riuscireste a pettinarvi (voi gentili lettrici) o a farvi la barba (voi lettori) davanti allo specchio, le automobili e le gallerie non avrebbero i catarifrangenti se, mille anni fa, questo Alhazen non avesse dedicato la vita a studiare proprio il comportamento della luce quando attraversa l'atmosfera, l'acqua, i vetri, quando viene riflessa dagli specchi.
    Alhazen era nato a Bassora nel 965, aveva proseguito gli studi a Baghdad (sì, proprio quella Bassora e quella Baghdad che abbiamo sentito citare tante volte, quando venivano bombardate durante la guerra Iran-Iraq del 1981-'89 e durante la guerra del Golfo del 1991), poi era vissuto al Cairo, poi in Spagna, poi ancora al Cairo, dove morì nel 1039.

    El HAITHAMI (ALHAZEN)
    Nga DR. A. Zahur (Zahoor) Ebu Ali Hasan Ibn El Haitham, i njohur në perëndim me emrin Alhazen, konsiderohet si babai i optikës moderne. El - Haithan ishte një nga shkencëtarët më të shquar të kohës dhe kontributet e tij në optikë dhe në metodat shkencore janë të pakrahasueshme. Ka lindur më 965 në Basra (Iraku i sotëm) ku dhe i mori mësimet e para. Ai studioi gjthashtu edhe në Bagdad si dhe udhëtoi në Egjypt dhe Spanjë. Pjesën më të madhe të jetës së tij e kaloi në Spanjë ku dhe bëri hulumtime në optikë, matematikë, fizikë, mjekësi si dhe në zhvillimin e metodave shkencore. El-Haithami bëri eksperimente në përhapjen e dritës si dhe ngjyrat, iluzionet optike dhe refleksionin. Ekzaminoi thyerjen e rrezeve të dritës përmes mjetit transparent (ajrit dhe ujit) dhe zbuloi kështu ligjet e thyerjes së dritës. Gjithashtu ai bëri eksperimentet e para në shpërndarjen e dritës në ngjyrat e saj përbërëse. Në detajimin e eksperimentit të tij me segmentet sferike (enë qelqi të mbushtura me ujë), iu afrua shumë zbulimit të teorisë së lenteve zmadhuese e cila u zbulua 3 shekuj më pas në Itali. Ligji i sinusit do të merrte edhe tre shekuj të tjerë për t`u propozuar nga Snell dhe Dekart.
    Libri i tij "Kitab el-Manazir" i cili është përkthyer në Latinisht në epokën e mesjetës ka të bëjë me ngjyrat e muzgut. Gjerësisht trajton teoritë e fenomeneve të ndryshme fizike si : ylberi, hijet, eklipset, dhe spekulon rreth natyrës fizike të dritës. Roxher Bakon (shekulli 13), Polo Vitelio si dhe studjuesit e tjerë perëndimor të kohës së mesjetës që u morën me studimin e optikës, kryesisht u bazuan në "Opticae Thesaurous" të El-Haithamit. Vepra e tij gjithashtu influencoi Leonardo Da Vinçin dhe Johan Kepler.
