Experiments with single photons
... This last point appears so surprising to Einstein that he writes : “From this point of view, it seems that Newton’s emission theory contains more truth than the wave theory, since it says that the energy given to a light particle when it is emitted is not spread out in infinite space, but remains ava ...

... Sometimes, it is convenient to treat the order parameter as a vector in some isotropic space, not related to real configurational space. Landau theory is based on a power series expansion of the free energy in terms of the order parameter (or order parameters) for the transition of interest. It assu ...

Angular Momentum 23.1 Classical Description
... We learn that, for example, [L̂x , L̂y ] = i ~ Lz . This tells us that it is impossible to find eigenfunctions of Lx that are simultaneously eigenfunctions of Ly and/or Lz . So returning to the issue of [Ĥ, L̂i ] = 0, we can, evidently, choose any one of the angular momentum operators, and have sha ...
