>"In physics, a plasmon is a quantum of plasma oscillation. Just as light (an optical oscillation) consists of photons, the plasma oscillation consists of plasmons." PDS: Which means that an electron -- is a quantum of electron oscillation... Which means that "oscillations" -- are the common denominator between electrons, photons, and plasmons (and probably any other thing in Physics with a "mon" -- after its name! <g>) Well, that, and they're "quantum"... Now, interestingly enough, when looking for the definition of "quantum", the first definition Google offers me is: Quantum: "a discrete quantity of energy proportional in magnitude to the frequency of the radiation it represents." (Google Search, 7/9/2021) Now, frequency is itself a proportion, a ratio, relative to TIME. Also, both "oscillations" and "frequency" are general terms for vibrations, although the definition of "frequency" is something like "vibrations per unit time", so it includes unit time -- whereas "oscillation" generally speaking, does not... Well, if all of these things mean the same thing in essence, then why can't we just "solve for X"? In other words, what's the common denominator -- between all of these apparently different things? Well, they're all just vibrations, at different rates of time, aren't they? Maybe a future physics -- will see all particles, waves, and fields -- as just vibrations... Vibrations inside of vibrations... Vibrations inside of other vibrations inside of still other -- vibrations... Slower vibrations (particles, when "looked at", when a measurement is taken in an instant of TIME) inside of faster vibrations, inside of still faster vibrations... Fractal vibrations! Perhaps the math of a future physics -- is fractal in nature... Also, here's an interesting question... If vibrations (in any system, at any scale) are related to the conservation of angular momentum -- then how would you conserve the energy of the entire universe -- if it contained infinite energy, infinite spin? ? And a related question: How was the first spin in the Universe created -- if the Universe initially consisted of nothing? (Related question: Can spin ever be created/destroyed at the Plank scale or smaller? Why or why not?) Also... I'll bet that a future scientist will prove -- that conservation of angular momentum -- and the conservation of information (necessary to resolve "The Black Hole Information Paradox") -- are really in fact, the same thing!
