. Gaspard Monge has received undue credit for his observations of mirages in 1798 in Egypt. He did not discover inferior mirages; they were known to sailors before 1687, and the term mirage had entered the French literature in 1753. Monge’s “total reflection” explanation for them was seriously flawed; it had already been considered and rejected by Gruber and by Büsch, and was promptly criticized by others. Yet he continues to be given credit for the first scientific explanation of mirages; and his false total-reflection mechanism survives today in some textbooks. Apparently this is due to its superficial simplicity, which appeals to novices.
期刊介绍：
The Comptes Rendus - Physique are an open acess and peer-reviewed electronic scientific journal publishing original research article. It is one of seven journals published by the Académie des sciences.
Its objective is to enable researchers to quickly share their work with the international scientific community.
The Comptes Rendus - Physique also publish journal articles, thematic issues and articles on the history of the Académie des sciences and its current scientific activity.
From 2020 onwards, the journal''s policy is based on a diamond open access model: no fees are charged to authors to publish or to readers to access articles. Thus, articles are accessible immediately, free of charge and permanently after publication.
The Comptes Rendus - Physique (8 issues per year) cover all fields of physics and astrophysics and propose dossiers. Thanks to this formula, readers of physics and astrophysics will find, in each issue, the presentation of a subject in particularly rapid development. The authors are chosen from among the most active researchers in the field and each file is coordinated by a guest editor, ensuring that the most recent and significant results are taken into account. In order to preserve the historical purpose of the Comptes Rendus, these issues also leave room for the usual notes and clarifications. The articles are written mainly in English.
