Since I'm the unique smart one alive I've taken the judgment by myself and decided that light is a particle. Not a wave or particle-wave.

Particles are countable units of things of the natural world.

A photon is a particle. An electron the same. An atom of iron is a particle as well. Particles can even be subdivided in even more particles. Like the atom of iron.

Particles are an abstract idea and light fits it. You can tell me how many photons are in your room at a certain moment.

The final decision has been taken by me and I hope that academics follow the judgment.

Once again I deal with physicists that don't understand much about Philosophy. Less mistakes would be taken in case you study Philosophy

Light is electricity. And it doesn't move, it reproduces.

I wonder why there are not many geniouses nowdays. Back then there were great physicists with great theories.

Maybe because everybody today is addicted to the entertainment industry. Movies, video games, music and so on.

I feel so alone =(

If light is a particle what makes one photon a different color from another photon?

Wrong. I do not have the sufficient equipment to obtain that information.

it's charge

high charged = ultraviolent
low charged = infrared

I have watched the video and he says that light is a particle at 19:00

>> No.11593807

the video says that we are not made of particles but fields, well, the fields are made of particles too

This not being true is one of the biggest topics in philosophy of qft

how does your particle theory of light account for diffraction

What sorts of particles spread out in a spherical pattern when they go through a small slit?

>> No.11594718

>>11593586
If that was true, why are the lenses of my camera significantly affected by diffraction when I close the aperture realy far?
At f/32 the images are pretty damn bad while they are insanely sharp between f/5.6 and f/8.
(between f/2.8 and f/5.6 the imperfection of the lens reduces the sharpness slightly)
