are there special relativiy concerns when dealing with dls?
or c is taken as infinitly?

"dls" means what?

> or c is taken as infinitly?

Only when the velocities considered are much less than c.  This
allows Newton to provide accurate predictions.

particle particle collision concerns, what about photon particle?

Still no idea what you mean.  I assume you don't intend to
communicate...

all right, you are nice

Then the answer is "yes", barely.  The photoelectric effect shows
marked effect when the photoemitting surface is heated.
Additionally, characteristic emissions spectra of "stuff" is
broadened by increasing temperature.

But the gamma of velocities associated with even 25000000 K is
not too terribly much larger than 1.

And "photon - particle collision" does require a charged particle
as the particle, and "collision" isn't a very useful term here.

light comes usually from a laser, T is constant

where is your "yes"

and why is photon - particle not a collision, smashed photons
are scattered all over plalces

Photon energy absorbed by a conduction-band electron provide the
photoelectric effect.  Temperature affects "cutoff voltage" when
a quenching bias is applied.

Just as light emitted by real matter is broadened by temperature,
so to is absorption of photons by orbital electrons, when the
atom/molecule is moving.

Photoelectric effect.
Emission (and hence absorption) spectral broadening.

> and why is photon - particle not a collision,
> smashed photons are scattered all over plalces

The photon is completely absorbed, and some finite time later, a
new photon may-or-may not be emitted.  Examples would be
orbital-transistion, thermal, or Compton scattered photons.

Hopefully I was more clear this time.

ok maybe, but you run away farther from the issue

are there any realtivity concerns?

there are no absortions at all, only geometry

what are the "orbital electrons"?

what has the photoelectric effect to do with relativity?

no absortion, to be more simpler, only reflections,. take them 100%

how long times it takes? a period, a phase shift  or somthing?

lets say there is a good chance to be emited, take it 100%

you just said electrons has no distict orbits but they
are a kind of projection of the nucleus, am i cool?

forget the thermals, we simplify to constant temperature as
been said before

compton deals with x-rays, we use cheap red lasers

yes, a bit, thanks

> David A. Smith

please tell me where are the relativity concernes if any

i think more on velocitys, angles, dilations/contractions,
geometrys and stuff like that

please do more answer ta me thank you very much

Temperature has two effects in photoemission.
1) the atoms/molecules (and so the electrons in the matrix) have
various velocities,
2) the work function of the surface is met (in part or in whole)
by the energy represented by the stored heat.

Relativity plays a very small part, but a part that can be
measured/detected.

Photons are absorbed by electrons of atoms.  These produce what
are called "absorption bands", and are characteristic of
different materials.

> what are the "orbital electrons"?

In hydrogen, this is the electron that is "bound" to the nucleus
by releasing a characteristic photon (ground state, 13 and change
eV, if I recall correctly).  And it can transistion to different
orbtial states from the ground state, by absorption of lower
energy photons.  Or be blasted completely out of the nucleus'
grasp by a photon energy higher than the electron's binding
energy.

It affects the cutoff of photo electrons, due in part to
molecular motion.

*Not* reflections.  The polarization is (in general) entirely
random.

It depends on too much.  It is akin to the same process that is
an "atomic clock".

I did NOT say that electrons have "no distinct orbits".  They
simply don't orbit according to the Bohr model, and the rest mass
of the nucleus-plus-electron is less than the rest mass of the
nucleus alone and the electron alone.

>

Every body at other than 0 K is constantly emitting thermal
photons.  We "shout" our temperature at each other.  Two bodies
in thermal equilibrium simply send (on average) the same numbers
and energies of photons.

>> or Compton scattered photons.

"Cheap red lasers" fired head on into an electron beam of
sufficient energy, makes TeV gamma photons used in photon-photon
interactions.  Actually, I think they use a slightly shorter
wavelength than red for this, but it is the same idea.  The
scattered photon gets up to a gamma-factor^2 boost in its
energy... depending on scattering angle.

I guess "we" need to know a little more about your intended
application.  What are you trying to accomplish?
