DRESSED PHOTONS. “The anomalous nanoscale electromagnetic field arising from light–matter interactions in a nanometric space is called a dressed photon.” https://lnkd.in/deVkGQUS View in LinkedIn

THE 99%. “The remainder of a proton's mass is due to quantum chromodynamics binding energy, which includes the kinetic energy of the quarks and the energy of the gluon fields that bind the quarks together.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton View in LinkedIn

SOFT PHOTONS. “Furthermore, the commitment of electromagnetic field (quantum and/or classical) causes more complications as will be discussed, like the case of infrared divergences, where “infrared soft photons” carrying low energies cause serious divergences through the coupling with the “on-shell states” of charged particles.” https://lnkd.in/dpsM58Ep View in LinkedIn

COMPOSITION. “Protons are composite particles composed of three valence quarks: two up quarks of charge +2/3 e and one down quark of charge −1/3 e. The rest masses of quarks contribute only about 1% of a proton's mass.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton View in LinkedIn

ETYMOLOGY. “The word proton is Greek for "first", and this name was given to the hydrogen nucleus by Ernest Rutherford in 1920.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton View in LinkedIn

PROTONS. “The number of protons in the nucleus is the defining property of an element, and is referred to as the atomic number (represented by the symbol Z). Since each element has a unique number of protons, each element has its own unique atomic number.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton View in LinkedIn

CHILDREN have a secret spiritual life. " "“Your angels?” I asked. " "“Yeah I see them right now.”" "“You see them?”" "“Yeah, I do see them and it’s like I can feel them and know they’re there. It’s like having a tea party and they’re talking about me. They let me know I’m loved.” https://lnkd.in/dRRQZ2nN View in LinkedIn

SO ENDS this first of two weekends on a new paradigm of dressed photons with practical applications by an erudite Japanese team woking with a private company in electronics. Light is everywhere, but our grasp of the true nature of photons is still a long way away. That does not stop us using photonic technology for many applications. Equally, it is not necessary to understand the brain to hack it, despite declarations to the contrary. https://www.mdpi.com/2073-8994/12/8/1244/htm View in LinkedIn

EPHEMERAL EXISTENCE. “An essential feature of this force, as described by quantum chromodynamics, is its ability to create matter–antimatter quark pairs inside the proton that exist only for a very short time.” https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03282-z View in LinkedIn
