Undergrad About photon-polariser interaction quantum-molecular-level mechanics

TL;DR

I'm quite interested in the aforementioned topic, and would like to take a look at more literature about it, and to learn more about it, and would like to ask if you know more about it, you can suggest the titles of the materials, or share the links to the materials and the literature

So to be clear, its literature on the the maths and mechanics of the situation at the moment when the wave of a particle like a photon encounters the molecules of the polariser, the quantum interaction of the target particle with the polariser molecules, like the photon-polariser interaction at the quantum-molecular level, or also the maths of the transition when and as the wavefunction is collapsing as it encounters and interacts with the molecules of the polariser

@DrChinese @Nugatory hi, would just like to ask you two, based on earlier lines of discussions, in case you two might know of some interesting material or literature, thanks

As @PeterDonis as mentioned earlier, this topic is way too broad to discuss properly at PF. However, the Wikipedia article gets into some of it and has references for you to follow up on.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photon_polarization

I would suggest you do that and then if you have some more really specific questions then ask here.

Until then we will close this thread.
