Sublime

the idea that in quantum field theories, scaling things up or down is like moving about in an additional dimension has a long history.

On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies

in all, the model contains about twenty parameters, key numbers such as particle masses and force strengths, whose often surprising values are not predetermined by the theory but must be measured experimentally and inserted into the formulas by hand. Physicists usually refer to these parameters as constants of nature,

We call the rate of fluctuation of the electromagnetic field its frequency, and we measure it with the unit called Hertz,

No ether exists. Michelson interpreted the results of what has been called “the most successful failed experiment” in history in the prestigious American Journal of Science:
