Mistakes of the Current Photon Model
All the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation (including visible light) from long-wave radio frequencies to cosmic rays is constituted by photons.
Although the current models suggest a photon is a single particle, experiments have demonstrated that a photon can exist in 2 places simultaneously.
If it only a single particle it is diffucult to undestand why photons have a spin equal to one, when most of subatomic particles have spins of + - 1/2?
This sole fact suggests two particles rather than one in one photon. Or, as Hawking suggests for a spinning subatomic particle: "when particles have spins equal to one, a gyration of 360ª should be produced, so its position is the same than initial one."
Another common misconception, is to define light color by its wave length, but this view does not take into account other factors , since it also depends on its velocity, which in turn depends on the media in which it moves, such as air, vacuum, water, crystal, etc.
If the equation stating that velocity is the product of wavelength by frequency, then when velocity decreases, what other variable changes, frequency or wavelength?
As color does not change when passing to through other mediums, it suggests that frequency remains constant while wavelength decreases in size.
Therefore, color depends only on frequency. But how can a photon, being a single particle "remember" its color? Or in other words, how can a single particle be frequency coded?
The present photon model cannot explain the different polarization properties, or how a photon moves in a lineal or elliptical polarization. If a photon is a single particle, how can it be explained that its total charge is zero, while it produces an electric and magnetic field?
