In article , Jeff Liebermann writes:
Photon (RF or light) pressure have been measured in the laboratory by using two pressure gauges, blocking RF and light from one gauge, and measuring the differential pressure. The differential measurement cancels external influences, such as gravity, wind, earth movement, etc. Maxwell's equations - classical field theory - predict light pressure even without photons and quantum theory. Double slit experiments show interference patterns are followed even by single photons allowed to to pass - exactly as if each photon converted to a wave and portions passed through each slit and thus _the photon interfered with itself_. You really have to observe quantum effects before you can register individual photons. And, with e = h nu, nu being frequency, quantum effects at UHF and below are much harder to see because each photon has such low energy. George |
