Mass is a form of energy: http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physic...oton_mass.html Quote:
QED deals with something called "renormalization" which deals with subtracting infinities and substituting the correct numbers in order to get usable results. Why not explain localized energy as the wave-function collapse of Schrodinger's equation, where the localized energies are really standing waves? The goal is to eliminate the infinities. Chimp |

Photonic Energy
h is Planck's constant. lambda is wavelength. E^2 = [hc/lambda]^2 = (p^2)(c^2) [h^2 c^2]/[lambda^2 c^2] = p^2 h/lambda = p E^2 = m^2 c^4 + p^2 c^2 E^2/c^2 = m^2 c^2 + p^2 m = 0 E/c = p Zero and infinity are really starting to bug me ![]() |
