Chavan's Theory of Light: Ripple Alignment and the ATT Principle introduces a radical shift in our understanding of one of the most fundamental phenomena in science—light. In this groundbreaking work, independent researcher and theorist Sandeep J. Chavan dismantles centuries-old assumptions about light as a wave or particle, offering instead a bold and elegant alternative grounded in his original framework: Universal Energy Dynamics (UED).

At the heart of this theory is the concept of ATT—Alignment Threshold Time. Unlike the conventional belief that light "travels" at a constant speed through space, Chavan proposes that light is not in motion at all. Rather, it is a ripple pattern in the structured vacuum, and what we call "illumination" or "detection" is not caused by impact, but by ripple alignment with a receptive field.

Through deep analysis, conceptual clarity, and innovative thought experiments, Sandeep Chavan shows how traditional wavefront and ray-based optics are simply consequences of optimized ripple paths—not independent mechanisms. Reflection, refraction, diffraction, interference, and even the photoelectric effect are reinterpreted in terms of field consequence and ripple identity. This shift not only resolves long-standing paradoxes in classical and quantum optics, but also opens the door to new forms of technology, AI perception systems, and ripple-based computing.

Chavan's Theory of Light is not just a scientific book—it is a manifesto for a new physics, one that redefines perception itself. It offers readers a detailed glossary, illustrative ripple diagrams, and appendices that explore the experimental proposals, philosophical implications, and future mathematical frameworks of ripple alignment. Chavan's work is rigorous yet accessible, bold yet grounded in observable logic, and rich with implications for physics, neuroscience, and the philosophy of reality.

Whether you're a physicist, a researcher, a student of science, or simply someone drawn to the mysteries of existence, Chavan's Theory of Light will challenge your assumptions and illuminate your thinking—without needing light to travel at all.
