Do photons exist inside an electron, well, or in any fermion, lepton, that can emit, absorb this package of energy?

>> No.8527336

Photons are electrons

Yes; this is why electrons have lower energy levels as they get closer to the nucleus. Once the photons excape from the inside of the electrons, the electron loses mass, and therefrom momentum. Since it loses momentum, it also loses kinetic engergy, resulting in the n=1 energy level being the lowest. glad i could help

oh wow, but about that loses mass, aren't photons massless, particles without mass, what do you mean by that when a photon leaves and electron, electron loses mass?

Photons an electrons are both elementary particles. One does not exist inside the other.

>>8527341
Very elegant, intuitive explanation. Unfortunately its a complete fantasy. An electrons mass is constant.

The photons emitted by an electron exist outside an electron before they are being emitted, like, when they are not.. roaming outside?

You people on /sci/ are too serious. I just started lurking here recently, so maybe I just don't get the board culture yet, but it seems as if no one here can detect sarcasm very well. This might be one of the most autistic boards.

That would explain it then. Unfortunately your explanation was about as accurate as the average poster here trying to explain something. This placed is filled with people trying to explain things they don't understand using high school science.

>> No.8527449

Either photons exist or they don't, either they exist inside an electron or they don't, or both in time, obviously.. electrons are partially photons then what?

I spend a fair amount of time on dedicated shitposting boards, so it is my natural instinct shitpost even on a more serious board. I will hold back next time, for the sake of the quality of this board. I apologize, I'm not quite used to anyone every taking me seriously, on the internet or in real life.
