Photons electromagnetic force

Quantum mechanics tells us that the forces of nature can manifest themselves as particles. Photons of light, for example, are the particles associated with the electromagnetic force. Such particles are not constituents of matter they have an entirely different character. The photons that are responsible for electromagnetic forces are never observed. They are emitted by one matter particle and absorbed by another before they can be detected. However, there is little doubt that these phenomena take place because there is ample indirect evidence that they do. [Pg.210]

Photons (the particles of light) carry the electromagnetic force ... [Pg.21]

The force carrier (or exchange ) particles are all bosons. These particles are responsible for carrying the four fundamental forces. This family includes the strong interaction carrier, the gluon the weak interaction carriers, the W and Z° the carrier of the electromagnetic force, the photon and the postulated but unobserved carrier of the gravitational force, the graviton. [Pg.24]

With regard to the migration mechanisms for the conventional type, a number of models have been proposed. The details are discussed in the literatures (Natan-sohn and Rochon, 2002 Sekkat and Knoll, 2002 Yager and Barrett, 2001 Viswanathan et al., 1999). In the conventional type, considerations of electromagnetic force given by photons seem to explain the migration behavior most appropriately. For the PT type, however, no summary has been reported. Therefore, a brief summary will be made here. [Pg.284]

Note Instead of photons the equivalent term cause each photon of a given wavelength is characterized by a specific energy, Sx(k) is also equivalent to a value given in J s cm nm h A photon is a particle of zero charge, zero rest mass, with spin quantum number 1 and energy hv it is the carrier of electromagnetic force ... [Pg.383]
