    Do photons have finitely many wavelengths?

    Well, that solves that :). Thanks Zz.

    Do photons have finitely many wavelengths?

    Interesting! So when a particle is accelerating, does it do so discretely? If it didn't then we'd have our proof right? Yury Edit: just to clarify, this was a reply to Carl

    Do photons have finitely many wavelengths?

    Thanks for the quick reply! Is there some way to prove that these spectra are actually continuous? For example, when we jiggle the electrons in your example, can we actually jiggle them by any amount we want, or will it be limited to some combination of the energies of the other particles in...

    Do photons have finitely many wavelengths?

    Hi all, If the energy states of electrons are quantized, are there finitely many wavelengths that a photon can have within, say, the visible spectrum? If so, how many? Thanks, Yury
