The hypothesis is the change caused by interference in the absorption of photons ... Spin 2?

Dear all, Thank you for your kind replies. Spin 1 is 1 by definition of the unit. All the best wishes, Alex

Dear ansgar, 0k, fair enough. Can I rephrase? If you want, can you detect a bosonic particle with spin 2? Thanks, Alex

Dear ansgar, Thank you for your reply. Dirac did propose something like that... But then you have the other question. If you want, can you detect a "defined" photon with spin 2? Thanks, Alex

Dear Twofish-quant, Thank you for your kind reply. Unfortunately I can not understand: "It seems that at some level you can model gravitons seem to be modeled by spin 2 particles." Can you explain? please. Thanks, Alex

Dear ansgar, Mumbo jumob? They are simple questions... The question: Can you really have a particule with spin 2 without electromagnetic perturbation? Can you explain why? Or are they dogmas? Can I google it? cheers mate, Alex

Dear ansgar, Thank you for your kind reply. One last question. In the detector and in the signal analysis can you tell the difference between a photon with spin 2 and a graviton? Cheers mate, Alex

Dear ansgar, Can you explain better? You are telling me that: if you want, you can detect a spin 2 for photons? Thanks, Alex

Dear ansgar, So you are telling me that by definition is not a photon? But can you model the response in order to have a photon with spin 2? Another way to put the question. Can you have a particule with spin 2 without electromagnetic perturbation? Why? Thanks, Alex

Dear Vanadium 50, In my degree I had some physics, in my master too and in my PhD also... but not specific in physics. Only a course in Quantum Monte Carlo... I had no expection about this forum pitch. My basic question: can you detect one photon with spin 2? Why? Thanks! Alex

Dear ansgar, yes, I meant: Is the electric field independent of the magnetic field? thank you! cheers mate, Alex

Dear sheaf, Thank you for your kind reply. So the "four-potential" detects electric and magnetic fields. The matrix consider the electric and magnetic fields has independent signals? Is the magnetic field independent of the magnetic field? Cheers, Alex

Dear ansgar, Thank you for your reply. What kind of tensor of rank 2 can you expect after a Lorentz transformation? Is the "four-potential" enough to describe the signals detected? cheers mate, Alex

Dear ansgar, Can you explain the detection and nature of the four potential? "it" is the "four potential" that transforms as vector under Lorentz transformations? The spin is 1 because the vector is a tensor of order 1? Thanks, Alex

Dear all, Can you please enlighten me about the spin of photons? How can you tell if it is spin 1 or 2 ? Thanks, Alex
