= Ballistic photon
{wiki=Ballistic_photon}
The term "ballistic photon" typically refers to photons that travel through a medium without being scattered or absorbed significantly. This means that these photons maintain a straight path over considerable distances, unlike most photons which may undergo scattering events as they interact with particles in a medium. In the context of physics and optical studies, ballistic photons are discussed in relation to phenomena such as quantum optics and imaging.
