After a certain relaxation time t1 the population of the two levels will reach an equilibrium which is determined by the temperature and the energy difference between the two states. Because of its higher excitation energy the upper state is less f ...

... b. Read section 2.9. Derive relations 2.19 from the 2 relations immediately preceding them. What can you say about the range of wavelengths making up the wavepacket of a very localized photon? What does this imply about one’s ability to simultaneous measure the position and momentum of a photon? Mak ...
