J O Linton replied to the thread I Shape of wave function (probability distribution) of a single photon.I completely accept that. Thanks.

J O Linton replied to the thread I Shape of wave function (probability distribution) of a single photon.But my point is that the maths is different. Several people have already pointed out that you cannot apply SWE to photons.

J O Linton replied to the thread I Shape of wave function (probability distribution) of a single photon.OK So if we technically have to use Diracs relativistic equation to predict the behaviour of single photons in a double slit experiment...

J O Linton replied to the thread I Shape of wave function (probability distribution) of a single photon.One more thing, if photons do not have a position operator and if non-relativistic QT does not apply to photons, why is the SWE so...

J O Linton replied to the thread I Shape of wave function (probability distribution) of a single photon.This makes a lot of sense. In the case of an electron the correct answer is therefore C. Thanks. I looked up the Mott problem. That...

J O Linton replied to the thread I Shape of wave function (probability distribution) of a single photon.Golly! That is quite some cop-out! suppose the atom is surrounded by a spherical half-silvered mirror of radius half a light second...

J O Linton posted the thread I Shape of wave function (probability distribution) of a single photon in Quantum Physics.A photon is emitted from an excited atom at the origin. I would like to know what is the shape of the wave function or rather the...

J O Linton replied to the thread I Quantum eraser experiment.Thank you for your response. I now realise that classical wave theory and QM must give the same answers as to the frequency of...

The diagram above shows an ideal perfectly collimated equal arm M-Z interferometer. Photons enter the apparatus at the bottom left at a...
