There are numerous mathematically equivalent formulations of quantum mechanics. One of the oldest and most commonly used formulations is the transformation theory proposed by Cambridge theoretical physicist Paul Dirac, which unifies and generalizes the two earliest formulations of quantum mechanics, matrix mechanics (invented by Werner Heisenberg)and wave mechanics (invented by Erwin Schrödinger).

∙ 9y agoMax Planck first came up with the idea of quanta. Albert Einstein later showed him he was correct that light was emitted in quanta and that it also absorbed in quanta. This is how he explained the photoelectric effect.

∙ 11y agoMax Planck first proposed the thesis of energy (in his specific case, light energy) coming in packets with a size that can not become any smaller. In other words, he first proposed that our Universe permits us to have (about) 2 eV of red light or 4 eV of red light, but that we could not have 1 eV of red light.

What is the scientific tool based on how atoms absorb and emit elctromagnetic radiation?
spectroscopy
Do atoms in excited states emit radiation randomly at any wavelength?
yes
Do atoms only emit visible light?
Yes because it only have light in common?
Why glow appears in discharge tube?
because excite of gaseous atoms emit photons .
What is happening in flame test lab?
Due to electron transitions in atoms some chemical elements emit a characteristic colored flame.
Energy is gained or lost by atoms in an amount called what?
You think to quanta.
Atoms emit energy as light when?
Atoms emit energy as light when electrons move to a lower energy level
Exactly what do vibrating electrons emit?
Classical they will emit electromagnetic waves (light and radio waves). Quantum effects might limit this since if the electrons are in the ground state (or all lower states are occupied) they can not emit any photons (quanta of electromagnetic waves).
Is it true that gas Atoms subjected to electricity emit bright lines of light?
yes, they do emit
What are atoms that emit particles and energy from their nuclei?
radioactive
Max Planck stated that electromagnetic radiation emitted tiny packets of energy which he called?
He called the packets photons.
What science studies how atoms absorb and emit electromagnetic radiation is?
spectroscopy
Do all atoms have beta decay?
No. Many atoms do not decay at all. Many that do undergo alpha decay. A few atoms emit neutron radiation.
Does every thing have physical energy?
Yes! All things are composed of small packets of energy, known as quanta, which include electrons, quarks, photons etc etc., and it is these quanta that form all of the building blocks of matter, i.e. atoms and molecules.
