What is the result of electron excitation?

Electron excitation is the transfer of a bound electron to a more energetic, but still bound state. The energy released is equal to the difference in energy levels between the electron energy states.

What is an excitation of a quantum field?

Quantum excitation is the effect in circular accelerators or storage rings whereby the discreteness of photon emission causes the charged particles (typically electrons) to undergo a random walk or diffusion process.

What is an excitation of a field?

The process of generating a magnetic field by means of an electric current is called excitation. Field coils yield the most flexible form of magnetic flux regulation and de-regulation, but at the expense of a flow of electric current.

In which field is the electron?

The term “electron field” implies that the electron particle we observe in experiment is the quantum of a field, just like the photon is the quantum of the electromagnetic field.

Where does electron excitation take place?

When an electron temporarily occupies an energy state greater than its ground state, it is in an excited state. An electron can become excited if it is given extra energy, such as if it absorbs a photon, or packet of light, or collides with a nearby atom or particle.

Is an electron an excitation of a field?

QFT, from what I understand, describes the electron as an excitation of the electron field. Both of these models describe the electron as some excitation of a mathematical field permeating space and time.

What is an electrical exciter?

Exciter is a small generator, mounted on the same shaft as that of the main generator, which produces DC power for the main generator field winding. In a brushless exciter, excitation power is generated by a small alternator whose armature is driven by the main generator shaft.

Is the electron an excitation of the electron field or a field?

QFT, from what I understand, describes the electron as an excitation of the electron field. Both of these models describe the electron as some excitation of a mathematical field permeating space and time. My question is this:

Is an electron a wave or a particle?

Rather, electrons are quantum objects. Along with all other quantum objects, an electron is partly a wave and partly a particle. To be more accurate, an electron is neither literally a traditional wave nor a traditional particle, but is instead a quantized fluctuating probability wavefunction.

When does an electron look like a particle?

An electron looks like a particle when it interacts with other objects in certain ways (such as in high-speed collisions). When an electron looks more like a particle it has no shape, according to the Standard Model.

Why is an electron stable in quantum mechanics?

The electron is stable because there is no allowed process in the quantum field theory it can undergo that would lead to its decay.
