Classical mechanics fails to explain several experimental observations such as:
1) Black-body radiation spectrum
2) Photoelectric effect
3) Compton scattering
4) Spectrum of hydrogen emissions
Quantum mechanics was developed to account for these phenomena by treating electrons as both particles and waves. Max Planck proposed quanta to explain black-body radiation, while Albert Einstein and Niels Bohr used quanta to explain the photoelectric effect and hydrogen spectrum respectively. Arthur Compton also explained Compton scattering using photons colliding with electrons.

1. Quantum theory proposes that energy is transferred in discrete quanta or packets rather than continuously, as first suggested by Max Planck in 1900 to explain blackbody radiation curves.
2. Heinrich Hertz experimentally demonstrated electromagnetic radiation in the late 1880s by generating and detecting radio waves, verifying James Clerk Maxwell's theory of electromagnetism.
3. Hertz made important discoveries about the properties of electromagnetic waves, including their ability to be reflected, refracted, and polarized, but did not realize the significance of his work.
1) Classical mechanics and Maxwell's equations can explain macroscopic phenomena but quantum mechanics is needed to explain microscopic phenomena such as atomic structure.
2) Quantum mechanics arose from the need to explain physical phenomena not accounted for by classical physics, including blackbody radiation, the photoelectric effect, atomic spectra, and specific heat of solids.
3) Experiments such as the photoelectric effect, Compton effect, diffraction of electrons demonstrated that particles have wave-like properties and waves have particle-like properties, showing the need for a new theoretical framework that incorporated wave-particle duality.
Quantum Mechanics: Electrons, Transistors, & LASERS. Paul H. Carr
Quantum Mechanics, QM, has enabled new technologies that impact our daily lives. Yet, there have been at least 14 different QM interpretations in the last century. “If you think you understand QM, you don’t,” said Richard Feynman. Our macroscopic language is inadequate to describe the wave-particle duality of microscopic QM particles. Mathematics works better. This talk illuminated the production of the play Copenhagen, in which German physicist Werner Heisenberg, who directed the German attempt to make an atom bomb, visited Niels Bohr in Denmark during WWII.

This document discusses various topics related to the particle properties of waves, including:
- The photoelectric effect and how photons carry energy in quantized packets.
- Max Planck's quantum hypothesis which established that electromagnetic wave energy is quantized in units of hf.
- Wave-particle duality and how light exhibits both wave and particle behaviors.
- X-rays and how they are produced via the inverse photoelectric effect when electrons are accelerated and strike a metal target.
- The Compton effect which demonstrates that photons can transfer energy and momentum to electrons during scattering.
- Photons, the basic unit of light and electromagnetic radiation which have zero mass but carry energy proportional to their frequency
This document summarizes a lecture on the inadequacies of classical mechanics and the introduction of quantum mechanics. It discusses how classical mechanics could not explain blackbody radiation spectra, the photoelectric effect, Compton scattering, or the emission spectrum of hydrogen. Quantum mechanics was introduced to account for these experimental observations, including the concept of photons and quantized energy levels in atoms like the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom. The document also discusses the wave-particle duality of light and how it exhibits both wave and particle properties depending on the situation.

B.Tech sem I Engineering Physics U-IV Chapter 1-ATOMIC PHYSICSAbhi Hirpara
Atomic physics describes phenomena at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles. It emerged in the early 20th century to address limitations in classical physics' ability to describe certain phenomena. Quantum physics recognizes that there is less difference between waves and particles than previously thought. It is probabilistic and counterintuitive, describing particles that can behave as waves and vice versa. Quantum physics underlies our understanding of atomic and subatomic systems and is crucial to fields like chemistry, materials science, and astrophysics. Planck's quantum hypothesis proposed that atoms can only absorb or emit energy in discrete quanta, initiating the development of quantum theory. Einstein later theorized that electromagnetic radiation consists of discrete photon particles, helping explain the photoelectric effect.

1. Classical physics describes large, everyday objects but fails to describe phenomena at the atomic scale. Quantum physics was developed in the early 20th century to address these shortcomings.
2. Quantum physics is counterintuitive, but it is the most successful physical theory ever developed. It underlies our understanding of atoms, molecules, and subatomic particles.
3. Quantum physics recognizes that waves and particles are less distinct than previously thought. Key insights include that light can behave as particles called photons, and particles can behave as waves.
This document discusses the development of quantum mechanics. It summarizes that classical physics could not explain certain experimental observations, leading to quantum theory. Key events were Planck's blackbody radiation law, Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect using light quanta (photons), and Compton's discovery that photons transfer momentum to electrons. The photoelectric effect showed that light behaves as particles (photons), while the de Broglie hypothesis and Davisson-Germer experiment showed that electrons can behave as waves. This established the wave-particle duality of both light and matter.
A laser is a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation. The term "laser" originated as an acronym for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation
Ernst Goldstein discovered positive rays (protons) in 1886 by passing cathode rays through a perforated cathode. Positive rays were produced and carried a positive charge. J.J. Thomson later determined the e/m ratio of protons depends on the gas used, with hydrogen giving the maximum ratio and identifying the lightest particle as the proton. In 1932, James Chadwick discovered the neutron through bombarding beryllium with alpha particles. The neutron was later found to be neutral and able to induce nuclear reactions. Rutherford proposed atoms consisted of electrons and protons in 1911 based on alpha scattering experiments, but the planetary model was defective as it did not explain the stability of electron orbits.
This document provides an overview of quantum mechanics. It begins by explaining that quantum mechanics describes the motion of subatomic particles and is needed to understand the properties of atoms and molecules. It then discusses some key developments in quantum mechanics, including Planck's quantum theory of radiation, Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect, de Broglie's hypothesis of matter waves, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, and Schrodinger's wave equation. The document also compares classical and quantum mechanics and provides examples of quantum mechanical applications like atomic orbitals and black body radiation.
1) Max Planck proposed that the energy of electromagnetic radiation could only be emitted or absorbed in discrete quantized packets called quanta, with energy levels proportional to frequency. This resolved the ultraviolet catastrophe and led to the development of quantum theory.
2) Einstein extended Planck's idea of quantization to explain the photoelectric effect, proposing that light itself consists of discrete particle-like packets of energy called photons, with energy equal to Planck's constant times frequency.
3) The Compton effect demonstrated that X-rays behave as particles when scattered by electrons, providing direct evidence that electromagnetic radiation has both wave and particle properties.
1) The document discusses the development of atomic physics models from Dalton's billiard ball model to Thomson's plum pudding model to Rutherford's nuclear model.
2) It then explains Planck's solution to the ultraviolet catastrophe by introducing the idea of quantized energy packets called quanta.
3) Bohr used Planck's idea of quantized energy to explain atomic spectra, proposing that electrons in atoms can only occupy discrete energy levels corresponding to distinct orbital radii. When electrons jump between these levels, photons of specific frequencies are emitted or absorbed.
The document discusses wave-particle duality and the Davisson-Germer experiment that helped verify this phenomenon. The Davisson-Germer experiment from 1927 fired an electron beam at a nickel crystal and observed that electrons were diffracted at specific angles, providing evidence that electrons exhibit wave-like properties as predicted by de Broglie's hypothesis. This supported the idea in quantum mechanics that particles can behave as both particles and waves, and helped establish the field of quantum mechanics.
The document discusses the history of atomic structure models from Democritus' idea of atoms to Bohr's model. Some key points:
1. J.J. Thomson's experiments in 1897 led him to propose the "plum pudding" model where electrons were embedded in a uniform positive charge.
2. Rutherford's gold foil experiment in 1911 showed that the atom has a small, dense, positively charged nucleus at its center.
3. Bohr modified Rutherford's model in 1913 to propose that electrons orbit the nucleus in discrete energy levels, explaining atomic line spectra. When electrons fall from higher to lower orbits, photons are emitted.
1. The document describes an International Baccalaureate extended essay that investigates the effect of distance between a light source and metal target on the stopping potential in a photoelectric system.
2. The research question aims to test whether increasing the distance between the light source and metal decreases the stopping potential, as per photoelectric theory.
3. The experiment measured stopping potential using different color filters and distances between a tungsten lamp and photoelectric module to determine the relationship between distance and stopping potential.
The document provides instructions for navigating a presentation on atomic physics and quantum mechanics. It begins with directions for viewing the presentation as a slideshow and advancing through it. The rest of the document consists of sections from the presentation covering topics like quantization of energy, models of the atom including Bohr's model, quantum mechanics, and the uncertainty principle. Key points, equations, and examples are included for each topic.
This document summarizes the photoelectric effect and Einstein's explanation of it. It describes experiments showing that electrons are emitted from metals when illuminated with light above a threshold frequency. The wave theory of light could not explain these observations. Einstein explained that light consists of discrete quanta called photons. When photons collide with electrons, they transfer their full energy instantly. If the photon energy exceeds the metal's work function, the electron gains enough energy to escape. Einstein's equation relates the photon's energy to the electron's maximum kinetic energy.
The document provides information about various physics concepts related to atomic structure:
1) It defines the photoelectric effect and gives the formula for maximum kinetic energy of photoelectrons.
2) It discusses atomic spectra and the Rydberg formula for calculating wavelengths of emitted/absorbed photons. It also defines various atomic spectral series.
3) It summarizes Rutherford's atomic model and its limitations, as well as concepts like isotopes, isotones, isobars, radioactive decay, and the functions of moderators and coolants in nuclear reactors.
1. Light was originally thought to be particles but experiments showed it exhibited wave-like properties. Maxwell unified electricity, magnetism and light by describing light as electromagnetic waves. Planck explained blackbody radiation by quantizing light into discrete "quanta" called photons, showing light has both wave and particle properties.
2. The photoelectric effect and double slit experiments further supported the dual nature of light. De Broglie hypothesized that if light acts as particles then particles should act as waves, which was confirmed. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle emerged from this understanding.
3. Lasers exploit stimulated emission to produce intense, coherent beams of light. Applications include microscopy, which uses lasers' tunability and focusing

Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...Sérgio Sacani
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.

Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...Sérgio Sacani
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.
Describing and Interpreting an Immersive Learning Case with the Immersion Cub...Leonel Morgado
Current descriptions of immersive learning cases are often difficult or impossible to compare. This is due to a myriad of different options on what details to include, which aspects are relevant, and on the descriptive approaches employed. Also, these aspects often combine very specific details with more general guidelines or indicate intents and rationales without clarifying their implementation. In this paper we provide a method to describe immersive learning cases that is structured to enable comparisons, yet flexible enough to allow researchers and practitioners to decide which aspects to include. This method leverages a taxonomy that classifies educational aspects at three levels (uses, practices, and strategies) and then utilizes two frameworks, the Immersive Learning Brain and the Immersion Cube, to enable a structured description and interpretation of immersive learning cases. The method is then demonstrated on a published immersive learning case on training for wind turbine maintenance using virtual reality. Applying the method results in a structured artifact, the Immersive Learning Case Sheet, that tags the case with its proximal uses, practices, and strategies, and refines the free text case description to ensure that matching details are included. This contribution is thus a case description method in support of future comparative research of immersive learning cases. We then discuss how the resulting description and interpretation can be leveraged to change immersion learning cases, by enriching them (considering low-effort changes or additions) or innovating (exploring more challenging avenues of transformation). The method holds significant promise to support better-grounded research in immersive learning.
Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark UniverseSérgio Sacani
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defectsSérgio Sacani
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
Candidate young stellar objects in the S-cluster: Kinematic analysis of a sub...Sérgio Sacani
Context. The observation of several L-band emission sources in the S cluster has led to a rich discussion of their nature. However, a definitive answer to the classification of the dusty objects requires an explanation for the detection of compact Doppler-shifted Brγ emission. The ionized hydrogen in combination with the observation of mid-infrared L-band continuum emission suggests that most of these sources are embedded in a dusty envelope. These embedded sources are part of the S-cluster, and their relationship to the S-stars is still under debate. To date, the question of the origin of these two populations has been vague, although all explanations favor migration processes for the individual cluster members. Aims. This work revisits the S-cluster and its dusty members orbiting the supermassive black hole SgrA* on bound Keplerian orbits from a kinematic perspective. The aim is to explore the Keplerian parameters for patterns that might imply a nonrandom distribution of the sample. Additionally, various analytical aspects are considered to address the nature of the dusty sources. Methods. Based on the photometric analysis, we estimated the individual H−K and K−L colors for the source sample and compared the results to known cluster members. The classification revealed a noticeable contrast between the S-stars and the dusty sources. To fit the flux-density distribution, we utilized the radiative transfer code HYPERION and implemented a young stellar object Class I model. We obtained the position angle from the Keplerian fit results; additionally, we analyzed the distribution of the inclinations and the longitudes of the ascending node. Results. The colors of the dusty sources suggest a stellar nature consistent with the spectral energy distribution in the near and midinfrared domains. Furthermore, the evaporation timescales of dusty and gaseous clumps in the vicinity of SgrA* are much shorter ( 2yr) than the epochs covered by the observations (≈15yr). In addition to the strong evidence for the stellar classification of the D-sources, we also find a clear disk-like pattern following the arrangements of S-stars proposed in the literature. Furthermore, we find a global intrinsic inclination for all dusty sources of 60 ± 20◦, implying a common formation process. Conclusions. The pattern of the dusty sources manifested in the distribution of the position angles, inclinations, and longitudes of the ascending node strongly suggests two different scenarios: the main-sequence stars and the dusty stellar S-cluster sources share a common formation history or migrated with a similar formation channel in the vicinity of SgrA*. Alternatively, the gravitational influence of SgrA* in combination with a massive perturber, such as a putative intermediate mass black hole in the IRS 13 cluster, forces the dusty objects and S-stars to follow a particular orbital arrangement.

2. All hot bodies radiate. An ideal radiator is called a black body
and the spectrum of radiator from a black body was well
known to 19th-century physicist.
BLACK - BODY RADIATION
BLACK - BODY RADIATION
The problem was to derive the spectrum from mechanics and
electromagnetism. Until 1899, no one had managed to do this,
and that was not for want of trying! The obstacle they had
encountered became known as the ultraviolet catastrophe
3. In 1900 Max Planck, a German physicist, came up
with a 'desperate remedy. He showed that an
accurate equation for the spectrum could be
derived as long as one new assumption was added
to those of classical physics. He assumed that the
oscillators that emit radiation can only have
discrete energies. Each oscillator can have zero
energy or some multiple of a fixed amount
(quantum) which depends on the frequency f of
oscillation according to the formula.
4. E-nhf
n is an integer, 0, 1, 2, and his a new constant,
now known as the
Planck constant:
h6.626 x 10MJs
FORMULA
FORMULA
5. Thermal energy is randomly
distributed, so the chance that
high-frequency oscillators will get
enough energy to start vibrating
(at least f) is much smaller than
for the lower frequency
oscillators.
OBJECTIVES
OBJECTIVES
How does this fix the ultraviolet
catastrophe? The shorter wavelengths
correspond to higher frequencies, so
the oscillators responsible for
radiation in this part of the spectrum
need a lot more energy to get into even
the first vibration state than those
emitting radiation at a longer
wavelength (lower frequency).
6. The result is that if energy is
quantized in this way the
high- frequency oscillators
are 'switched off and the
intensity of the spectrum at
high frequencies drops down
rapidly to zero exactly as
observed. (In classical physics
all oscillation frequencies
would have been excited, and
the cumulative effect was the
ultraviolet catastrophe.)
PROCESS
PROCESS
Planck and other physicists were
uneasy about this new idea, but
there seemed to be no other way
to explain the black-body
spectrum. The inescapable
conclusion was that
Electromagnetic radiation
is emitted in discrete
energy packets or quanta
7. Another problem that arose late in the nineteenth century
concerned the way light falling on some metal surfaces could
eject electrons from them. This is called the photoelectric
effect. According to wave theory, light energy is spread
evenly across the wavefront, so electrons should be emitted
only if enough energy is delivered close to an electron on the
surface. Also, the ejection should depend only on the
intensity of the incident light, and not on its frequency.
Neither of these expectations was borne out in practice.
Experiments led to these "laws of photoelectricity.
THE PHOTOELECTRIC EFFECT
THE PHOTOELECTRIC EFFECT
8. For any metal, electrons are only emitted if the frequency of the incident
light is above some threshold value fo. (So weak ultraviolet can emit
electrons from zinc, whereas very intense infrared cannot, even though
it is delivering far more energy per second to each unit of the zinc
surface.)
The threshold frequency depends on the metal and is usually lower for more
reactive elements (so electrons are emitted from potassium more readily than
from zinc, and from zinc more readily than from copper).
The maximum kinetic energy of the ejected electrons depends only on the
frequency of the incident radiation and is proportional to the difference
between the light frequency and the threshold frequency:
KEmax (f - fo).
9. Einstein, who was aware of Planck's work, tackled
the photoelectric effect in 1905. He saw that all the
experimental laws could be explained if it was
assumed that atoms can only absorb light energy in
discrete 'energy packets' or quanta, and that the
size of one quantum is proportional to the
frequency of the light and given by
E-hf
10. These quanta became known as photons, and Einstein won the 1921
Nobel Prize for Physics for this work. Photons solve all of the problems
with which wave theory had difficulty
Photons are indivisible, so each photon gives all its energy to one electron.
If there is a minimum or threshold energy required to eject electrons
from a particular metal surface, then there will be a minimum photon
energy that can do this. Photon energy is proportional to frequency, so
electrons are only ejected with light above a certain threshold frequency.
Increasing the intensity of light does not affect the energy of individual
photons, only the number arriving per second
11. The minimum energy required to free an electron
from the surface depends on the metal, so the
threshold frequency changes from one metal to
another. Reactive metals lose electrons easily, so less
energy is required and their threshold frequency is
lower:
12. If the light frequency is only just above the threshold
frequency, the photon energy is only just sufficient to eject
electrons, so there is little left over for kinetic energy. The
maximum kinetic energy of ejected electrons can be no
greater than the difference between the photon energy and
the threshold energy. This is directly proportional to the
difference between light frequency and threshold frequency.
