Einstein and the Photoelectric Effect

“The simplest conception is that a lightquantum transfers its entire energy to a single electron…”

Über einen die Erzeugung und Verwandlung des Lichtes betreffendenheuristischen Gesichtspunkt. Einstein A., Annalen der Physik, Vol 17, p 132, 1905.

“We have to assume that, in ionization of a gas by ultraviolet light, one energy quantum of light serves to ionize one gas molecule.”

Bell’s Theorem

A Local Realistic interpretation of Quantum mechanics is

impossible.

“paradoxes … arise with the assumption that photonsare indivisible elementary particles...”

SPIE Photonics East,1-3 October 2006Advanced Photon Counting Techniques (SPIE Vol. 6372, paper no. 29)

“…the truth lies in a direction that requires a radical rethinking of our basic ideas about space, time and the quantum world.”

The Trouble with Physics, Smolin L.,Houghton Mifflin Co., Boston, 2006

“The failure of the superstring theory program can be traced to its lack of any fundamental new symmetry principle. … theorists [must] turn … away from this failed program and toward the difficult task of better understanding the symmetries of the natural world.”

Not Even Wrong. Woit, P., Basic Books, New York, 2006
