  3. Photon energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photon_energy

    An FM radio station transmitting at 100 MHz emits photons with an energy of about 4.1357 × 10 −7 eV. This minuscule amount of energy is approximately 8 × 10 −13 times the electron's mass (via mass–energy equivalence). Very-high-energy gamma rays have photon energies of 100 GeV to over 1 PeV (10 11 to 10 15 electronvolts) or 16 nJ to 160 ...

  4. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

    In frequency (and thus energy), UV rays sit between the violet end of the visible spectrum and the X-ray range. The UV wavelength spectrum ranges from 399 nm to 10 nm and is divided into 3 sections: UVA, UVB, and UVC.

  5. Planck relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_relation

    The Planck relation [1] [2] [3] (referred to as Planck's energyfrequency relation, [4] the Planck–Einstein relation, [5] Planck equation, [6] and Planck formula, [7] though the latter might also refer to Planck's law [8] [9]) is a fundamental equation in quantum mechanics which states that the energy E of a photon, known as photon energy, is proportional to its frequency ν: =.

  6. Zero-point energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-point_energy

    It has been shown that at energies of the order of the Z 0 boson rest energy, m z c 2 ≈ 90 GeV, that: rather than the low-energy α ≈ ⁠ 1 / 137 ⁠. [ 122 ] [ 123 ] The renormalization procedure of eliminating zero-point energy infinities allows the choice of an arbitrary energy (or distance) scale for defining α .

  7. Planck's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck's_law

    Expressed in micrometers this puts 98% of the Sun's radiation in the range from 0.296 to 3.728 μm. The corresponding 98% of energy radiated from a 288 K planet is from 5.03 to 79.5 μm, well above the range of solar radiation (or below if expressed in terms of frequencies ν = ⁠ c / λ ⁠ instead of wavelengths λ).

  9. Molecular vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_vibration

    A molecular vibration is a periodic motion of the atoms of a molecule relative to each other, such that the center of mass of the molecule remains unchanged. The typical vibrational frequencies range from less than 10 13 Hz to approximately 10 14 Hz, corresponding to wavenumbers of approximately 300 to 3000 cm −1 and wavelengths of approximately 30 to 3 μm.
