    The Bohr model of the Hydrogen atom: atomic spectra and quantization, Quantum Lecture – 4 and 5.

    Light is known to have possessed various colors. It would be more appropriate to state that light and color are two entirely distinct entities. Light does not contain color just like you do not contain your spouse. Its another matter you both appear at the same venue on the basis of the same invitation card.…

  • Blackholes and the Action Principle.

First off there are always a connection between action principle and anything else in Physics. Everything in principle can be derived from the action principle. The action…

  • Whats Light. A small primer.

    A small primer on optical attributes of Light. Manmohan Dash, ( — largely edited, 18-19 January 2014, originally from; Wednesday, March 27, 2013 at 3:58 pm UTC + 05:30 ) Updated Discourse. If you ever seem, to be caught up between: they say light always moves at the same speed-c, they keep on harping, why…

    What do we know about photon? (light)

    I should at some time try to be a little more comprehensive than what will follow, I have elsewhere said how photon is very special: zero mass, vector spin state, fastest particle, force carrier of electromagnetic force — actually Maxwell waves and so on. We can not talk about the position of the photon in…
