Undergrad Why did the photon lose its license?
"The mathematics of the theory forbids it," while its ontology clamours for recognition. The photon begs to jump in vain — his fate is always to be running late... In its essence, it carries the key to the universe's logic, but physicists' rather romanticize the mystery. It wants to make things...- drzbigniew31

Undergrad Why did the photon lose its license?
Albert Einstein in 1905 led the constitutional overhaul of fundamental physics. Since then, when Special Relativity (SR) was written in stone, it became established that nothing can move faster than the speed of light in the vacuum: 299.792.458 m/s. This constituent principle is...- drzbigniew31

Undergrad Could the (SR) forbidden photon's own referential mean something?
Step 1 – What SR says (as I understand it): For a photon, proper time dτ = 0. If we (naively) try to go into the photon's "frame", the Lorentz transformations blow up. The standard interpretation: "The photon has no rest frame, end of story." Step 2 – What bothers me: If dτ = 0, that means...- drzbigniew31

Undergrad Are the basic axioms of thermodynamics demonstrated experimentally?
I would like to propose a very simple experiment and ask: what is the official thermodynamic prediction for this specific setup? And, are such basic experiments performed during physics training, or do courses move directly to more complex experiments while taking the foundational axioms for...- drzbigniew31
