Ah. This is good news. I have this concept or idea but need to learn more. My knowledge is woefully lacking, especially the math. I have some leads to follow now and material to study. This forum is the bees knees. Hopefully I can do a bit more than ask irritating questions.

I will be home tonight late; at airport now. I shall look at the references soonest in the morrow. Out of ignorance: isn't a uniform gravitational field already curved space? Thanks for the patience. I'll be switching my phone off for flight. Apparently they make planes drop out of the...

The speed of light a property of space, kind of allows for it to ba a medium? Sound, for example, although not QM, can travel through various substances. Wouldn't those be mediums? And those also limit it's seed. I know it's not like that but..

I would argue that space isn't nothing. It has structure and behavior and affects everything. The ripple in space was more of an analogy for visualization of an abstract concept. If matter and energy cause gravity and if gravity is space behaving in a particular way; be it bend or curve...

Sorry for the duplicate; not only do I have to use a Blackberry, but I also have to content with intermittent reception. The last one appeared to have not gone through.

Space is the medium, the way I see. Vacuum for the least interference. Anything not vacuum would affect the structure of space as medium. To our current model, everything inside our expanding universe is space. And as we know, it is affected by energy and mass. And through which light travels...

Both. How does it move from A to B; There must be a form of conductance to carry the information. If light (a photon (I struggle to say a photon because in my mind it is counter intuitive)) is/has energy and a mass, (to my understanding e and m is almost interchangeable but not quite) it must...

Is the propagation mechanics of light moving through space known? How it is "conducted" and how does it affect space. It is mass/energy after all = gravity or bent space? And the speed of light, perhaps a max amount of change possible in relation to mass and energy within certain constraints to...

So in essence it is more of an abstract description of it's behavior, rather than what it actually is.. This I can visualize again, to some limited extend. It's hard to try to not visualize. And I suspect that the terminology wave particle duality must originate from an attempt to visualize the...

What I meant was: use energy to make a wire glow with heat (light bulb). The heat cause photon particles to appear, travel at just under 300 000km/s, hit an object causing heat on object. Converting energy into particle and back. Your explanation did shed more light on the subject though.

Thanks, I shall look up the given. Good stuff,

Thanks for the answers. The reason for my question, in essence, is; I find the wave particle duality, perhaps in ignorance, as sloppy results. As if Occam's razor alarms should sound. I can visualize the wave, moving, as with light, as radiation at a certain frequency. Traveling at the...

Hi to all This may be a stupid question. 1.How much evidence is there proving light to be particles rather than waves? Like the double slit experiment, using a single photon. Are there other experiments with a similar outcome? And 2. How sure are we that we are actually firing a single...
