I had a thought last night for the first time that light can have a few more properties that we (or I) usually consider.
Of course the most obvious aspect is frequency and then if it is coherent, how it is polarized and if the wave state has collapse or not. The next aspect I am aware of but consider less often is that some types of light, actually lets say photons (packet of EM) from here in, are created from a single electron moving (or jumping orbit) and the other type I normally consider comes from a dipole antenna which is creating detectable electric fields at the ends and magnetic fields in the middle. This gives rise to momentary thoughts as to if some photons are more magnetic and some more electric. This however goes nowhere since I an perfectly aware that photons move and a moving electric fields creates a moving magnetic field and visa versa. I generally also then consider that the magnetic field is just a convenient construct to simplify understanding relativistic distortions in electric fields that net to zero but have different motion. What I only considered last night is a photon that is constructed not from a moving electron possessing a negative electric field but from something possessing a positive electric field. Mainly in my mind the proton or Anti-Electron. Needless to say, I can't think of anything that emits noticeable light from either of these sources, but why knows how this positive electric field light might differ. And of course, might not differ in any real way at all. Can anyone think of any source for such light? I can only think of an MRI as being an apparent example of such light. This does give me one other thought though, could a photon type be created to interact with the nucleus of an atom (perhaps inducing it to rotate-precess-nutate). And does a nucleus release such a photon it's self? Another thought I had, although this one is not new fro me. I believe that when a photon is absorbed, in reality it is still flying through but perfectly cancelled by an opposite photon created by the movement of fields and charges that we consider absorbed it. Admittedly it would interact with nothing and have no energy. The final 2 thoughts I had was that you can create an unshieldable E or M or EM field by making it of a shape that can't be normally generated, that way no field can counter it. This is because shielding only tries to create an equal and opposite field that matches and cancels the main field. This is clearly and unambiguously seen in transformers where the magnetic fields outside the core are alive and well but undetectable until you vary the flux and then the way they move the inductive influence adds rather than cancels. Since the magnetic fields are not really cancelling we can see the same of electric fields from the atoms, they are still there but balanced (mostly) until one moves creating a type of electric field you can only feel when moving, we term this a magnetic field but that is a fiction. Furthermore that is interesting because it means that the electric fields of every particle fills the universe out to the stars. The other question that is generated is at what point does the packet of moving electric field we call a photon detach from the field since the field extends all the way, could this transition be the wave collapse in different terms? Also what of half photons? Just a bit of a wiggle. They must propagate but I don't know if we normally detect them in the same way, do they form a sub quanta photon packet (oxymoron) or do they remain as waves? Final thought, can light created by a proton or positron be absorbed by an electron and perfectly cancelled (AKA absorbed)? Perhaps, but I am not sure and these things are fun to wonder about. What else is there to discover about the universe of which we have no clue. -- If we doubt we can hardly hope to Shine. Be Alive when you are alive! You can't BE later. "Life" is not important, significant, serious or weighty. Life is a dance to be enjoyed. It is You and I that are important, Living life is at stake! There is no someday. There is no right way. There is only now. Virtue or Vice, a moment of pain for a lifetime of pleasure, or a moment of pleasure for a lifetime of pain. Construction or destruction, it is just a matter of order in which you experience pain and joy, spirit and integrity or weakness of flesh. If you aren't making mistakes, you aren't doing enough. How you feel is feedback on what you are currently doing and not informing you of what to do, don't wait to feel like it. Do it and see how you feel.
