I've searched all over the web to get an answer for this, to no avail. So I decided to ask this question here and I'm hoping someone can.
What is the four-momentum of a photon?
I saw online that the 4-momentum is [tex]P = m_{0}U[/tex] but then this leaves me with another question and that is, what is the four-velocity [tex] U [/tex] of a photon. I don't believe it exists because a photon is never at rest.
Can anyone help me with this? Many thanks beforehand for any advice and assistance.
