He didn't suggest such an experiment. Porat is very confused about beams and photons. he thinks if you shine a torch on a detector for one second, then that is a one-second-long photon, and so if you can shine a torch for less than one second, that proves photons are not one second long (which he mistakenly thinks E = hf means). > That One Photon would > either be absorbed by a particle of the dusty atmosphere or travel > back with its original energy!

And for as long as it take the measuring equipment to 'register' the energy received. As I've said many times before, photons are created and destroyed in an instant (which means within a single quantum of time, if time is quantized). But it takes time for the processes in a detector to use that energy and work out how much energy there was. How long that takes depends on the equipment involved. And we'd keep taking measurements over and over for lots of individual single photons to get as much data as we can, and to help minimize experimental error. > i ddint look back > but if i ddint Fraze it properly > i apologize - but am sure > anyone could understand my meaning > so > hereby i did it again > ***and that is no reason > not to answer it !!!! > (ps > just take it in account that i was agree (:-) > ATB > Y.Porat > ---------------------- |
