The ~ 10μ photons get an almost free pass and zip through the GHGs and off to Space or, if they happen to be emitted downward, strike the Earth and get absorbed, further warming the Earth until it stabilizes in temperature, re-emitting
the same number of photons as it receives.
When the system reaches equilibrium,
the same number of photons will leave the gas column as enter.
Not exact matches
And which kind
of measurement to perform on this
photon is decided by a random -
number generator at the
same moment when the
photon pairs are created at a distant location, about a mile away, which means that no signal could travel fast enough to influence this.
Platzman's and Mills» gamma - ray laser proposal involves generating coherent emission
of these 511 keV
photons by persuading a large
number of Ps atoms to commit suicide at the
same time, thus generating an intense gamma - ray pulse.
The current experiments use such a small
number of photons that it would take a standard laptop a fraction
of a second to make the
same calculation.
As the frequency
of the electric field
of the infrared radiation approaches the frequency
of the oscillating bond dipole and the two oscillate at the
same frequency and phase, the chemical bond can absorb the infrared
photon and increase its vibrational quantum
number by +1.
The details on a molecular level determine how likely a given transition is likely to occur — in other words, the fraction
of photons of some frequency, polarization, and direction, that are absorbed over some path through an amount
of material, and the
number of photons of the
same type which are emitted per unit time.
i.e. if c is higher, then also dQ must be higher in order to get the
same dT with the
same m. Thus the
same number of the longwave
photons will give a smaller rise
of temperature
of water as compared to the material in the pavement.
There isn't much
of a 3D effect, as near as I can tell, and the gauntlet that
photons have to run involves the
same number of molecules.
When we start getting to 3
photon combinations, 4
photons onwards to 1.92 × 10 ^ 28
number of systems, we Still a limited
number, in that there's only 1.92 × 10 ^ 28
numbers to play around with, but far more combinations than there are stars (or to put it another way, you could have unique combinations being presented to a person as fast as they could perceive it for their entire life, and you could probably do the
same thing with every other person, without having any duplicate combinations between people.
