...mechanics and quantum numbers? I understand basic concepts of quantum mechanics, looking for in depth explanation. Are they both point-particles? What is the diffrence between a free electron and a free photon. Can an electron ever become a photon or vice-versa. How do virtual photons differ from regular ones, and how do thos differ from photons being exchanged durring an electric flux field.?How do free electrons differ from non-free, and how do those differ from electrons involved in electric fluxs and electromagnetic interactions/events?
