Hello......Does the travelling mass of a photon bend the fields in space around it forming a magnetic field tunnel propelling the energy packet wrt quantum mechanics? Thx

No, nothing has to propel a photon. Newton's first law is enough.

This conversation is just simply 'Just Chat' pseudoscience .......I was trying to think of an intermediary between Classical Wave and Planck's Quantum Particle.......I was just suspecting that if Maxwell's derivations were done in a different frame travelling at max speed, if the results could be fragmented and that any extra magnetic field segments could form  photon tunnels.......Thx .....again just a pseudoscience speculative idea......more than likely B,S.

Let me revert into Classical.......Is an electromagnetic field pulse of a specific coherent length considered equivalent to a particle? If so, then what attributes make it so?.....Thx....just casual please......

an electromagnetic field pulse of a specific coherent length

We may be jumbling up a few terms there...
- If you have a continuous-wave source (like a laser or a CW radio tone), it is possible to get very high spectral purity, and long coherence length
- If you have a short pulse, the wavelength is spread over a wider range of frequencies and the coherence length is shorter
- But you seem to be talking about individual photons, which can be measured to have an accurate wavelength, but you are rather uncertain when predicting the time of arrival
