Quantum World

This blog was started by a PhD student in Bose-Einstein Condensation (Theoretical Atomic Physics) in a US University, to write something on Quantum Mechanics and the phenomena which can be better explained quantum mechanically. The blogger was born on the lap of the HIMALAYAS !

Photons+Water molecules = Rainbow


The quanta of light are called photons and the quanta of matter are the atoms /molecules.When light falls on water molecules, it is scattered and a colorful pattern called the 'RAINBOW' is formed.
That's what is happening here in NIAGARA FALLS in an early morning of August 2008!
