Heat (& Temperature) is QUANTITY (QUANTUM) of Energy



1. Tom Roberts said a light beam's INTENSITY means multiple photons.

2. Many don't believe that heat (temperature) ALSO means multiple
photons (multiple quanta's).

Heat (& temperature) is a QUANTITY. A quantity of discrete quanta's
(meaning multiple photons).

3. Tom Roberts doesn't believe that multiple (more than two) photons
can create a ****SINGLE***** particle pair but instead Muliple PAIRS.


Wikipedia (***please*** read carefully) says the opposite of Tom
Roberts:

Quote: ".....the energy (temperature) of photons must obviously exceed
the rest mass energy of the given matter particle pair."

Pair is singular above and not plural as Tom believes in #3 above,
therefore Tom is wrong and I am right.
