Quantum it describes a fundamental aspect of energy not just restricted to photons. In the attempt to bring theory into agreement with experiment, Max Planck postulated that electromagnetic energy is absorbed or emitted in discrete packets, or quanta. Quantum In physics, a quantum (plural: quanta) is the minimum amount of any physical entity (physical property) involved in an interaction. The fundamental notion that a physical property may be "quantized" is referred to as "the hypothesis of quantization". This means that the magnitude of the physical property can take on only discrete values consisting of integer multiples of one quantum. For example,
Australasian Physical & Engineering Sciences in Medicine Australasian Physical & Engineering Sciences in Medicine Australasian Physical & Engineering Sciences in Medicine is a quarterly peer-reviewed medical journal covering research on medical physics and biomedical engineering. It is the official journal of the Australasian College of Physical Scientists and Engineers in Medicine. The journal was first published in 1977 as "Australasian Physical Sciences in Medicine", obtaining its current name in 1980. It has been published by Springer Science+Business Media since 2010. The journal replaced the earlier "Australasian Bulletin of Medical Physics" and "Australasian Newsletter of Medical Physics", which was established in December 1959. The Kenneth Clarke Journal Prize
