I've realized it's not. Thank you for your help. If I may ask one last question (I promise), is the energy lost by a photon the same as the energy lost by an EM wave when both are travelling through the same conductive material?
Sep 17, 2014 21:39
just to clarify, do you mean \hat{N} is the particle number operator? Also I still want to have E_p=f(\hat{H}) so could I say E_p=\frac{\frac{d}{dp_x} \frac{d}{dp_y} \frac{d}{dp_z} \hat{H}}{\sum_{\lambda} \hat{a}_{\lambda}^{\dagger}(\mathbf p) \hat{a}_{\lambda}(\mathbf p)} ?
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
Could you solve $$\hat{H}=\sum_{\lambda}\int d^{3}\mathbf p E_{\mathbf p}\left( \hat{a}_{\lambda}^{\dagger}(\mathbf p)\hat{a}_{\lambda}(\mathbf p) + \delta (0)\right)$$ for $E_{\mathbf p}$ (ignoring the constant)?
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
@AndrewMcAddams Last questions, is it possible to rearrange equation (6) for $E_{\mathbf p}$ and if so how?
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
@AndrewMcAddams Does a decrease in the energy of the electromagnetic wave mean a decrease in the energy of the photon or the number of photons?
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
@AndrewMcAddams if $\delta (0)$ is the dirac delta function wouldn't it mean the solution is infinite as it approaches infinity?
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
@AndrewMcAddams Could you explain the notation used in $$\sum_{\lambda}\int d^{3}\mathbf p E_{\mathbf p}\left( \hat{a}_{\lambda}^{\dagger}(\mathbf p)\hat{a}_{\lambda}(\mathbf p) + \delta (0)\right)$$?
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
@AndrewMcAddams Sorry that it took me this long to accept it my internet was disconnected and thank you for all the work that you put into your answer.
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
@AndrewMcAddams May I ask what $\mathbf r$ is?
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
@AndrewMcAddams Ok, so the question is now, how does one relate the energy of sets of photons to $E$?
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
Yes, could you explain some of the terms and more importantly you state that $$ E = \int T_{00}d^{3}\mathbf r = \int \frac{1}{8 \pi}\left( \hat{\mathbf B}^{2} + \hat{\mathbf E}^{2}\right)d^{3}\mathbf r. $$ but what does $E$ denote? I'm looking for $E_{p}=f(E_{w})$
Sep 15, 2014 21:11
Could you get it?

Its is said that " However even higher order algebraic equations can be solved explicitly if an associated Galois group is solvable ", can I use this idea?
Sep 6, 2014 09:50
k
Sep 6, 2014 09:49
Can't I approximate the aforementioned solution of x
Sep 6, 2014 09:48
W is the solution of the octive, or the root.
Sep 6, 2014 09:46
But u can see why that isn't really helpful because what that means is W is represented as a root object, and the variable of that root object can be represented as a root object
Sep 6, 2014 09:44
K so what your saying is that there is no representation for the second solution of x in terms of [L,A]
Sep 6, 2014 09:36
What other detail is needed?
Sep 6, 2014 09:35
I'm looking for a simple solution for W, which would be the second solution of x.
Sep 6, 2014 09:32
The only problem is I have been using a trial version of Mathematica so I would greatly appreciate it if you could apply N
Sep 6, 2014 09:31
Ok so that means the only solution I'm concerned with is the second one. Now, is it possible to represent this solution as just a f[A,L]?
Sep 6, 2014 09:31
When you simplify "sol" could you make A=2 and L=8.7532759347618317962647585592473591641754313583030763
Sep 6, 2014 09:31
It is important to add that L>>A, e.g. when W=3 and A=2, L=8.7532759347618317962647585592473591641754313583030763
Sep 6, 2014 09:31
Does this just proves that there are two positive real roots? How can I find these roots as a f[A,L]?

Thank you for your help
Jul 30, 2014 14:18
How did you come up with the 2 approximations?
Jul 30, 2014 14:09
Oh ok so the red is used for that whereas the blue is used for the other case
Jul 30, 2014 14:07
So the curves are used for when psi>>gamma or psi is close to gamma, but what about gamma>>psi?
Jul 30, 2014 14:02
So the blue can used for when psi>>gamma and psi\approx gamma (which seems to be the most accurate)? Also how do I increase the precision for these approximations so they aren't rough estimates?
Jul 30, 2014 13:54
Ok, but how much bigger?
Jul 30, 2014 13:51
very nice, I am just trying to follow you atm
Jul 30, 2014 13:37
How would I start approximating this into its closed form? Can I do what you have done for your older answer?
Jul 30, 2014 13:30
Ok so I have two cases, where psi>>gamma -> x is in the nbhd of 0 and the aforementioned
Jul 30, 2014 13:28
My point was $x$ is always in the nbhd of 1, regardless of how close or far apart $\psi$ and $\gamma$ are. I want to be able to do what you did for your older answer for this problem.
Jul 30, 2014 13:28
Sorry I misjudged the situation, $x$ ergo $E(x)$ must be closer to 1 since when $\psi$ and $\gamma$ are close together, for example when $\psi=1$ and $\gamma=2$ $x \approx 0.952890514$ and when $\psi$ and $\gamma$ are further apart, for example when $\psi=10000$ and $\gamma=2$ $x\approx 0.9999999995$
Jul 30, 2014 13:28
$x$ can range from 0 to 1 so how would I know how large my argument of $E(x)$ is? $4 E(x)=\int_0^{2 \pi } \sqrt{1-\frac{4 \pi ^2 \psi ^2 \left(\sin ^2(\theta)\right)}{\gamma ^2+4 \pi ^2 \psi ^2}} \, d\theta =4 \int_0^{\frac{\pi }{2}} \sqrt{1-x^2 \sin ^2(x)} \, d\theta$
