We also have submarines, jetski, trains, bus, bicycles, roller blades, aeroplanes, and helicopter. Seeing this way, 2 looks like a small number.
Both the wave and photon models have vast areas of direct application. If you can produce a better theory there are multiple Nobel prizes waiting.
A unification between wave model and particle model of light
either modifying the wave to incorporate explanation for phenomena currently explained using particle model, or modifying the particle to incorporate explanation for phenomena currently explained using wave model.
@McQueenYou are Cordial & Polite.A Rarity on Science fora.(very good)Nowadays, it's mostly seen as a Boxing ring, & laymen used as Punching bags.Anyways, back to the Topic...Missing mass!You not satisfied with the Dark Matter Hypothesis?
Quote from: hamdani yusuf on 20/03/2024 21:34:46A unification between wave model and particle model of lightIt has already happened, it is called Quantum physics.Quote from: hamdani yusuf on 20/03/2024 21:34:46either modifying the wave to incorporate explanation for phenomena currently explained using particle model, or modifying the particle to incorporate explanation for phenomena currently explained using wave model.It didn't work out that way. In quantum physics it is known that a photon (like an electron or any other quantum object) is not a particle and it is not a wave, it is something completely different it is a quantum object.
I have hypothecated a substance that Dark Matter might be made of and tried to calculate if it would fit the missing mass, using data from the net such as the volume of the Milky Way Galaxy, its mass etc., and got surprisingly good answers
How do you explain refraction and diffraction using quantum physics?
I do realise that there are two models of everything in physics, now-days. ................................., One model is used for performing calculations and the other for philosophical speculation.

@McQueenPlease do Allow a few randomly absurd thoughts...Can " Space " bend over itself?Could the ' Higgs field ' twist, tangle, entangle in on itself?Can ' Relativistic mass ' not produce a similar, but not the same, effect such as Gravity?
Except it doesn't explain the interaction of light with materials. Photography, photoelectricity.....all require a particle model,
and at very low intensities you can even count the photons!
The first problem I see is that no one, that I am aware of, thinks that light is no longer real when light travels from point A to point B. I think you are mistaking the mathematics that describe light with the actual photons themselves. The light does not travel as an abstract mathematical wave form, the wave form is a mathematical description about aspects of a photon.
