The interpretation of light as transverse waves is critically examined. ‘Old information’ is updated and combined with ‘new information’ and a new model is presented. The behavior of electromagnetic waves is examined and compared with that of longitudinal sound waves. Synchrotron and Cerenkov radiation are used as supporting evidence showing light waves are not transverse in nature, and are transported by a medium.
