Photon is basically massless, it is just a packet of energy. A photon is released when an electron comes back from its excited state to the ground state.

Hey mate,

The photon is a type of elementary particle. It is the quantum of the electromagnetic field including electromagnetic radiation such as light and radio waves, and the force carrier for the electromagnetic force. Photons are massless, so they always move at the speed of light in vacuum, 299792458 m/s.

  • Spin: 1

  • C parity: −1

  • Parity: −1

  • Symbol: γ

  • Mean lifetime: Stable

  • Statistic: Bose–Einstein statistics

  • Interactions: Electromagnetic, Weak, Gravity.

Hope it helps.
