PHOTON TRAITS. “A photon can be equivalently characterized by either its energy and wavelength, or its frequency and momentum. (Figure) and (Figure) can be combined into the explicit relation between a photon’s momentum and its wavelength.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

COORDINATED COMPLEXITY. “Plants have a diurnal separation of metabolic fluxes and a need for differential maintenance of protein machinery in the day and night. Light-harvesting complex proteins were synthesised and degraded much faster in the day (approximately 10:1), while carbon metabolism and vesicle trafficking components were translated at similar rates day or night. Few leaf proteins changed in abundance between the day and the night despite reduced protein synthesis rates at night, indicating that protein degradation rates are tightly coordinated.” https://lnkd.in/gePUJphd View in LinkedIn

THE RELATIONS. “According to the theory of special relativity, any particle in nature obeys the relativistic energy equation. This relation can also be applied to a photon. The photon’s energy is the same as that of a light quantum of frequency f, which we introduced to explain the photoelectric effect.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

MASSLESS ENERGY. “For example, how can we find the linear momentum or kinetic energy of a body whose mass is zero? This apparent paradox vanishes if we describe a photon as a relativistic particle.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

QUANTUM VS CLASSICAL. “From the point of view of Newtonian classical mechanics, these two characteristics imply that a photon should not exist at all.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

THE WAVE. “The Compton effect has a very important place in the history of physics because it shows that electromagnetic radiation cannot be explained as a purely wave phenomenon.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

THE PHOTON. “To explain the shift in wavelengths measured in the experiment, Compton used Einstein’s idea of light as a particle.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn
