What is the most modern theory of light?
The most modern theory of light is the quantum theory.
What did albert Einstein work for as a scientist?
quantum theory of light
Enumerate the theories of nature of light?
newton corpuscular theory,huygen wave theory,maxwell electromagnetic theory and planck quantum theory
What is planks quantum theory?
explain planks quantum theory? Planck did not make the whole Quantom thoery. He only made up Quanta. Other scientists helped inprove it over time.
What phenomenon cannot be explained on the basis of the wave theory of light?
Photo electric emission cannot be explained using wave theroy of light. We need quantum theory.
What theory of light best explains the emission of electromagnetic radiation of an excited atom?
Quantum Mechanics
When would quantum theory change?
when data shows electron energy levels are not related to light wavelengths.
What will be the theory after the quantum theory of light?
There is unlikely to be a successor to a quantum theory of light, by the definition that the quantum theory of light is that "Light is made up of discernible particles", has very strong evidence to support it, and no alternative explanation has yet been found to explain such effects as the photoelectric effect.If you mean quantum electrodynamics, the section of the standard model of particle physics that explains light, electricity and magnetism, and therefore the standard model of particle interaction, then the only answer is that absolutely nobody knows. In fact, finding a successor to the standard model, which despite being one of the best theories ever developed is full of more holes than the titanic if taken as a theory of everything, is one of the biggest deals in all of science.One possible successor to the theory of quantum electrodynamics is the section of superstring theory that explains electromagnetism, but there are many who don't think string theory will be the answer to physics' problems, and certainly string theorists have yet to find any strong evidence supporting their theories.
What are thee different theories of light?
Newton's corpuscular theory Huygen's mechanical wave theory Maxwell's electromagnetic wave theory Finally Planck's quantum theory LIght as a single "photon" acts somewhat differently than a wave (of energy).
Which System of mathematical equations is used to describe behavior of small particles traveling at velocities near speed of light?
Schrödinger's equations, I believe
What are some words in science that start with the letter q?
Quantum theory, Quantity, Quanta of light.
What is early quantum theory?
light transfers by pieces, and one piece is one quant, one quant has energy of hv0
