Later Planck showed that one could explain this law if one makes the physical assumption that EM radiation is quantized and comes in energy quanta that depend on the frequency E0 (n) = hn = h̄w In other words light with a certain frequency comes in p ...

Furthermore, according to this result, the de Broglie wave associated with the particle would travel faster than the particle itself, thus leaving the particle far behind. Thus it ...

... Spin quantum number “s” is a unique property of a particle. Fermions have half integer value of “s”. Two fermions cannot occupy the same quantum state. Electron, Proton, Neutron: s=1/2 Bosons have full integer value of “s”. There is no limitation in the number of bosons that can occupy the same stat ...
