There certainly are. Thank you, will do

Hi pmb Thanks for those links. I had a good look at them and realised how much I didn't know that I didn't know! But having said that it did start to cement some of what I had read on these forums. I think just seeing things written again and again helps make sense of it and it starts sinking in (that's the hope anyway!) It's a great place to learn things and to get help from others who can help. Cheers again!

This is brilliant thank you! - this will keep me busy for a while

Wave/Particle duality is very interesting to me. I would like to learn so much more about it than I know at the moment. Thanks for your reply. Thank you for your reply pmb. I will follow your link and have a look at it.

Fantastic! Thank you Juanrga

I'm not sure I understand that but I appreciate you taking the time to answer. Cheers. I'll have a look and try and understand the threads. Thanks again for your answers

Thanks swansont. Something I've learned from your answer that I find interesting is that a particle of light (photon) doesn't have mass by the "common physics definition of mass", which suggests to me that there is another definition of mass. Is this correct? And does this have anything to do with Planck length? Or am I way off base?

Hi there My question is: "If light can a particle, does it have mass. If so how can something that has mass travel at the speed of light?" Please be gentle, I am no expert. Just pondering on something I thought of the other day. Also if any answers could be given in layman's terms I would be very grateful - - thanks for taking the time to read * can be a particle

Hi I'm LovesTheStars. I love the stars. Lol - sorry that's my attempt at trying to have as good a sense of humour as the rest of you. Failed miserably ;-P I love astronomy, astrophysics, quantum. Looking at the posts I don't think I know nearly as much as most people on this site but still find the discussions around them interesting as hell. Great idea having people introduce themselves. Thanks for the thread
