Demystifier replied to the thread Undergrad Why is thermal energy treated differently than other kinds of energy?.In principle, we could completely ignore statistical mechanics and thermal energy, and explain everything as you would like, in terms of... -
Demystifier replied to the thread High School Electron absorbs photon, but what happens to the photon?.The QED Hamiltonian determines the time-dependence of the state ##|\psi(t)\rangle##. But once you know ##|\psi(t)\rangle##, you don't... -
