“Protons and neutrons interact strongly with each other because their building blocks do so. The exchange particles of the strong color interaction are called…

“Particle-antiparticle pairs fluctuating in the vacuum also permit the fusion of two real photons into a single one, in the presence of an external…

“Every photon you’ve ever seen, from the sun, from a screen, from a candle in a temple, was emitted by the same electron, transitioning…

— Timur Naimat

“Just as photons are scattered off the charged particle-antiparticle pairs fluctuating in the vacuum, electrical charges will interact with the virtual photons of zero-point…

— Henning Genz

“Charged particles can scatter light by absorbing and reemitting it (a). Light can scatter off light only by the mediation of charged particles-the virtual…

— Henning Genz

“If there weren't any charges, there would be neither absorption nor emission nor any scattering. Light would not impact on the matter it passes…

“The ordinary photon is a member of the boson family.”

— Neil deGrasse Tyson

For her PhD, Maria Goeppert Mayer, a theoretical physicist, came up with the idea of multi-photon physics. That means an atom absorbs two or…

At the head of these new discoveries and insights comes the establishment of the facts that electricity is composed of discrete particles of equal…

— Johannes Stark

An external electric field, meeting it and passing through it, affects the negative as much as the positive quanta of the atom, and pushes…

With the exception of gravitation and radioactivity, all of the phenomena known to physicists and chemists in 1911 have their ultimate explanation in the…

— Richard P. Feynman

Photons are accurately and legitimately described as waves and particles at the same time. They are genuine wavicles.
