. Counting photons . |
Hello Erico Di Gelato , You ask ,
" Is light a wave or a particle ? "
Photons are definitely waves ,
but they're funky waves ,
with particle-like behavior .
And with adding and cancelling ,
it's impossible to say how many photons might be in a peak .
People count the maxima of laser oscillations all the time ,
But no one can count photons .

Photons are routinely counted individually. It can be done with
modern charge coupled devices, as well as an old fashioned
photographic emulsion. And photons are waves, but not macro-sized
electromagnetic waves. In quantum field theory an individual quantum
is the smallest allowed wave, a unit wave, of the field. It's entirely
possible to arrive at a measurement of how many photons are
represented by a wavelength of a classical EM wave; such a wave is an
accumulation of a large but estimable number of unit waves, the
photons.

Oh really ? !
Then why doesn't the Systeme International ( SI ) ,
use X number of photons as the standard for the Kilogram ?
( Instead of X number of pure silicone atoms )

Oh dear. You need to revisit your texts on relativity.
(Silicone makes good breast implants. I have never heard of its use as a
mass standard.

I know you do , but why do you think I need to ?
Photons have inertia .
The problem with using an artifact as a standard is this :
_ You have to clean the dang thing .
_ What if the artifact losses mass ?
How would you even know ?
_ You can't e-mail the standard to anyone .
But the problem with using
a count of photons is even greater :
_ How do you contain them ?
_ How can you count them ?
_ How long does it take to count them ?

You know, Franz happens to be a seasoned, professional physicist,
with years of this under his belt. He's been-there/done-that, and if I
were you, I wouldn't be so presumptious. You just might get your *****
whooped. You may have something resembling an interest in physics, but
you repeatedly and reliably reveal your ignorance. (counting photons,
SiliCONE, etc, etc.) Instead of trying to pretend, you could be
learning the real thing.

Laphroaig is the second best whisky in the world. The best is Lagavulin.
Both are Islays. The Lagavulins available to me are all much older than the
Laphroaigs, consequently I can not afford to drink the former as regularly
as I would wish. Enjoying it is an acquired taste, so don't just gulp down
a large mouthful at your first sitting, or you will just commit the heinous

Too true.
Almost analogous with Joule's bitter (now alas no longer being brewed),
which financed a lot of experimental progress in the understanding of the
relationships between mechanics and heat.
I don't drink much wine in the normal course of events. My preferred
mealtime drink(s) is half a pint of Carlsberg washed down with a sip of

Interesting! I live in a tiny village in the middle of nowhere in one of
the remoter parts of the Yorkshire Dales, and my local village shop supplies
me with my requirements by way of Carlsberg beer. I drink it both because
it is an excellent lager, and also out of loyalty to my Danish colleagues.

sin of spiting it out.
Well, I suppose then I _might_ charitably suppose the Langavulin
you've tasted is different than that I've tasted, and hence that your
taste structure is not hideously flawed and unnatural.
BTW, I've had both the old Laphroiag and the younger, and I certainly
don't think the older is worth the extra money, and I might even
prefer the younger at any price: has more bite. Smoothness isn't
everything, the way the fools who pay $150/bottle for "Johnny Walker
Blue Label" seem to think.
