A light beam is a stream of light particles, or photons, that travel in a specific direction. This phenomenon is often described in terms of optics and physics. Light beams can vary widely in terms of their intensity, wavelength (color), and coherence. Here are a few key characteristics of light beams: 1. **Directionality**: A light beam typically travels in a straight line. This is particularly true in a vacuum or in a homogeneous medium where there are no obstacles.
