laser - Is the energy of single photon defined by uncertainty relation? What is the pulse duration of sigle photon beam?


Coherent sources can have ultra short pulse durations provided there is at least one photon in frequency that span broad bandwidth (and are coherent)?


Does that mean that the pulse duration is infinitely long for beam of single photon (basically one frequency)?


Can we define precisely a photon energy or is it also uncertain?

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
