Alex,

>>>"photomultiplier counted individual energy states of e/m field (=photons)">"we used Geiger counter to count photons from x-ray tube">"UV spectrometer experiments we counted UV photons as dark grains on a film"

• So, what knocks electron out of an atom when light hits it? - alexander - October 31, 2001 - 02:28 UTC
  • The atoms are quantized to begin with - yanniru - October 31, 2001 - 15:41 UTC
    • E/m field is quantizied (=photon exists in a vacuum too). - alexander - October 31, 2001 - 19:47 UTC
      • Strike Три !!! - luis_hamburgh - October 31, 2001 - 23:59 UTC
        • Luis! - harvey1 - November 1, 2001 - 15:16 UTC
          • Racial slur? - luis_hamburgh - November 2, 2001 - 01:03 UTC
            • I thought about it later - harvey1 - November 2, 2001 - 03:00 UTC
        • Luis, I am really very sorry - alexander - November 2, 2001 - 18:49 UTC
          • Go back to the dugout - luis_hamburgh - November 2, 2001 - 22:33 UTC
            • What then "interferes" in Michelson interferometer? - alexander - November 3, 2001 - 17:57 UTC
    • Thank you Richard - luis_hamburgh - October 31, 2001 - 23:45 UTC
      • Background - yanniru - November 1, 2001 - 15:18 UTC
        • Anticlimax - luis_hamburgh - November 2, 2001 - 01:09 UTC
          • Luis, lack of arguments? - alexander - November 2, 2001 - 19:26 UTC
            • Alex, is it possible... - harvey1 - November 2, 2001 - 19:56 UTC
              • Harv, this guy is no professor - luis_hamburgh - November 2, 2001 - 22:48 UTC
                • I don't that's the case - harvey1 - November 2, 2001 - 23:15 UTC
                  • s/b: I don't think that it is the case (nt) - harvey1 - November 2, 2001 - 23:16 UTC
                  • He can't even explain... - luis_hamburgh - November 3, 2001 - 15:19 UTC
                    • Luis, one should be as dumb as only you can be - alexander - November 5, 2001 - 09:19 UTC
                      • It is all elementary - yanniru - November 5, 2001 - 15:22 UTC
        • richard, PhD in e/magn should know how light (and brain) works. - alexander - November 2, 2001 - 19:10 UTC
          • Sante Fe Institute - yanniru - November 3, 2001 - 17:45 UTC
            • This would explain a lot - luis_hamburgh - November 4, 2001 - 16:17 UTC
              • Luis, according to you replies you still live in dark ages. - alexander - November 5, 2001 - 10:08 UTC
            • Richard, wake up - quantum electrodynamics is 50 years old. - alexander - November 5, 2001 - 09:59 UTC
