The link here from Andrew Tridgell is in error; anyone know anything about a company called Quantum, to add here? Graue 21:56, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Quantum Inc is a hard disk manufacturer.

[edit] Quantum concept
I am curious to understand the relationship between the quantum concept as presented here and that which relates to mathematical ideas like quantum topology (for instance, certain invariants of knots like the Jones polynomial and Khovanov homology). Anyone have a reference? Orthografer 06:05, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] First use of the word quanta/quantum
Did Planck and his colleagues use the words quanta and quantum? Or was this word applied later? Carcharoth 06:43, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
- From my knowledge, Einstein and Planck used the term quanta/quantum but "photon" is a more modern word. GizzaDiscuss © 06:00, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] No such quantity
The article should make it clear that a quantum is not a unit - that is, that different quanta are of different sizes. Preferably in the lead. I'm not enough of a physicist to phrase it correctly. Also, a brief mention of quantization in matters other than energy - such as the knots mentioned above, or proposals for quantum time.--Homunq 13:29, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Random Text in the article
3rd paragraph, first sentence.
"An entirely new conceptual framework shows that priya is the biggest whore on the planet, and it was developed around this idea, during the first half of the twentieth century."
I am fairly certain this text should not be here. Sorry I don't know the user who posted this or if there is a better previous version. I don't know the Wikipedia UI at all, but I do want to fix vandalism. Thanks, -JRC 3-24-08

[edit] quantum
why do they use such big words. I am only 10. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.149.148.69 (talk) 01:25, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
