I stand corrected - you're not going to quote Lamb and Scully's semiclassical model. You have your own mod... err, no, you don't like models, - you deal in reality rather than mere models. But you have "mathematical evidence" that light doesn't have a particulate nature. :scratch:

I look forward to the demonstration of how your mathematical machinations explain the experimental results of quantum optics.

Oh you've written a book, according to post 23 here :cheers:

Does the model have curves or curved space? No image showing up here...

This makes no sense at all.

Perhaps you could explain?

Why "this makes no sense at all" for You? Do You know Schrödingers equation? Do You know Helmholtz-Equation?

Yes to both.

Also, to help make some sense of your posts can you please attribute quotes please.

All the ones I can find have a character limit well below the content of that post.

Me too.

I've found a couple but they fail because of the <noindent> tags etc..

^That's a big sum.

Haven't got a clue where it comes from or what it means!

Thank You very much, twistor59 and hackenslash for bringing the mass formula on the screen.
(The "cdot" in front of the bracket has to be replaced by a point)
Herewith I proudly present the mass formula. With this formula You are able, to calculate the mass of every elementary particle.
"k" is the wave vector, its value k = spin angular frequency / speed of light.
"e" is the elementary charge, that is the same for every particle. "r0" is the radius of the particle. "mu_0" is the permeability constant of the vacuum and pi is the circle constant.

Since it is clear that photons don't exist, I avoid the word "photon" and use "light quantum" or just "quantum".
Quantums only travel in the vacuum, so the sentence above is valid. In the case a quantum meets a gravitational field of e.g. that one of an atom or molecule, the light beam is bent,
...

So, for you, photons don't exist, yet "light quantum" does. What is the difference?
