Details
"The Nature of Light: What is a Photon?" by Roychoudhuri, Chandra is a astronomy book and space science reference focused on Cosmology. Best for students, researchers, and serious astronomy enthusiasts.
Gathering contributions from globally recognized specialists in electrodynamics and quantum optics, this volume continues the debate on the definition of a photon and the concept of wave-particle duality. After covering the mainstream view of the nature of light and photons, it presents a new and challenging scientific epistemology that explains how to overcome the prevailing paradoxes and confusions arising from the accepted definition of a photon as a monochromatic Fourier mode of the vacuum. It concludes with an array of experiments that demonstrate the innovative thinking needed to examine the wave-particle duality of photons.
