Yes, light is a particle!

Welcome back, Spherical Cow Moonions! 

This week we are continuing our journey through the history of light, the birth of quantum mechanics and particle-wave duality! In this episode we are carrying on with our discussion about the birth of quantum mechanics by talking about the Photoelectric Effect and the Compton Effect. 

Please see an addition to our discussion below:

15:07 - Poor Robert Millikan! We forgot to mention that he also won a Nobel Prize in 1923 for his work on the Photoelectric Effect and for determining the charge on the electron.
