What actually are photons, means are they packets of energy or some sort of matter.
Not in any direct way. The wave equation that you get from Maxwell is a classical one. It tells you nothing about the 'nature' of a photon (a quantum entity). It can give you information about the probability of a photon interaction in a particular location, though.Aditya Vishwak said:But how is the photons related with the Maxwell Equation? Equation?
A photon is a fundamental particle of light that carries energy and has no mass.
Photons can be described as both a wave and a particle, depending on the experiment being conducted.
The purpose of a descriptive explanation of photons is to understand the behavior and properties of these fundamental particles, which play a crucial role in the field of optics and electromagnetic radiation.
Photons have properties such as wavelength, frequency, and energy, and they travel at the speed of light in a vacuum.
Photons can be created through various processes, such as the emission of light from atoms, nuclear reactions, and particle interactions.
