Photons are fundamental particles of light that have no mass, travel at the speed of light, and carry energy and momentum. They exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, and can be absorbed or emitted by atoms.
Yes, photons are real. They are fundamental particles of light that have no mass, travel at the speed of light, and carry electromagnetic energy. Photons exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties, such as interference and the photoelectric effect.
Yes, light exhibits characteristics of both photons and waves. It can behave as a stream of particles (photons) when interacting with matter, while also exhibiting wave-like properties such as interference and diffraction. This duality is known as the wave-particle duality of light.
The term for the small packets of energy emitted from light is called photons.
Photons.

Photons do not come in different types like infared-photons etc. they are just the wavelength that the photons are at and nuclear fusion just happens to emit photons at a particular wavelength

Photons behave more like a wave when they exhibit phenomena such as interference and diffraction, which are characteristics of wave behavior. This is evident in experiments like the double-slit experiment where photons create an interference pattern when passed through two slits.
No. All photons travel at the speed of light.
The energy of visible light can be measured in organized packets called photons. These photons have discrete values of energy, meaning there is exact amounts of energy these have, and don't vary in decimal places.

The term for the small packets of energy emitted from light is photons. Photons are the basic unit of light and possess characteristics of both particles and waves. They carry energy and momentum and are responsible for electromagnetic interactions.
Well, they're probably not really particles ... but they're called "photons".
