How can we explain the maximum of energy and the cut off at 6 GeV if 
there is no entity to transport that energy? The piece of aluminum used 
as a converter here has no influence to the energy at which the 
conversion to a pair happens. How could it? And the pair production is a 
single event presenting a well defined energy.  On the other hand, this 
experiment was repeated using different fixed electron energies in the 
range of 4.5 to 7 GeV. And in each experiment the cut off energy for the 
pairs was exactly the energy of the electrons in the original beam.

The only conclusion can be that there have been entities which have 
transported exactly this energy (particularly those defining the cut off 
region) to the point of conversion. And these entities are given the 
name "photon" in standard physics. If someone has a better theory for 
it, this one may propose another name for this entity. And the saying 
that his is a "particle" is the normal motivation to call something a 
particle.

Do you have an alternative idea?

There is always an interaction between a photon and a charge, so there 
is a deflection. In this case there is a theory which makes a prediction 
for the cross section of this reaction. An important value in this 
theory is the differential cross section in the forward direction. - Now 
it is by trivial considerations not possible to measure exactly in the 
forward direction because there the measurement tools would be within 
the primary beam. So one tries to get as close to the forward direction 
as possible. In this experiment we were able to come closer to the 
forward direction than it was possible in the past. - The result of this 
measurement was in agreement with the theory ("Optical Theorem").

You pick up an argument earlier in this discussion that the detector may 
be in favour of a certain energy, so it might collect energy until this 
value was reached. But this is not the case here as 1.) the aluminum 
converter does not have a preference for specific energies; and 2.) this 
experiment was repeated at some different energies, and in any case the 
energy of the original electron was reproduced.

The other detectors in this experiment were needed to monitor the 
intensity and the spectrum of the beam. As we wanted to measure a cross 
section we needed the original intensity.

If any converter or detector here would sum up energies, why do we not 
see energies above this value of 6 GeV? And further, if this summing up 
should happen, the process has always statistical properties so that the 
cut off edge would be washed out.

As I said, if the energy would be spread out then the edge at 6 GeV 
would be washed out. But it was precise by less than 1% which conforms 
to the accuracy of our energy measurement.

As I wrote above, this measurement is very essentially different from 
the photo electric effect. And the size of the particle is only 
important only in so far that it should be able to pass through our 
collimators. - If the photon has a size this will be most probably 
related to the wavelength of that photon. And in so far it is compatible 
with classical optics. Any S matrix is not needed in the scope of the 
related theory.

The probability of the pair production is well known in this case (here 
3%) because pair production was known and used since many decades.

The point 2.) I have discussed in detail above. The converter has in no 
way properties of a resonance antenna, otherwise the probability of 
detection would be sensitive to the incoming energy, which it is not.
And what are gravito-inertial fluctuations? As there is no connection 
between gravity and inertia?

The photon beam intensity of this experiment was not very high. So maybe 
we could in a new evaluation show that only single photons have reached 
the converter. We did not look at this point. However, it should be 
generally possible to reduce the energy so far that we have single 
photons coming in as isolated ones.

But to my knowledge there has been a lot of experiments done in 
astronomy where definitely single photons have been measured. Their 
measurements have been used to determine the spectra of faint stars. And 
theses spectra where consistent to the spectra of bright stars, so the 
energy was obviously correctly measured and not distorted by the 
detectors in the case of single triggers.

And another case: Those famous experiments to check for the particle 
wave question at a double slit have been performed also with laser light 
of a very well defined wavelength and at very low intensities so that 
clearly single photons were measured. Also here the result was that the 
single photons carried the measured energy.

And there was another experiment done at Caltec in 1997. In that 
experiment monochromatic radiation was emitted by a laser, then the 
photons were reflected by high energy electrons so that the energy was 
increased essentially to the value of the electrons. And these photons 
were then converted into electron positron pairs. Also in this case the 
energy of a pair was the energy of the earlier electron which 
accelerated the photon.

So your part: In which different way do you think that one can analyse 
my experiment? With the assumption of waves which are quantized by the 
measurement process it is clearly not possible.
