What Happens When You Cut A Photon? Physicists Found An Unexpected Answer
SMRTR summary
Cutting a photon in half sounds impossible, but physicists decided to model what would happen if it could be done. Their findings were surprising: instead of producing two half-photons, the process may actually generate an infinite number of photons. This unexpected result challenges basic assumptions about light and quantum behavior, potentially opening new questions about the fundamental nature of photons.
