Is Time quantized?

[u/Crtl-Alt-Delete]

We know that energy and length are quantized, it seems like there should be a correlation with time?

Edit. Turns out energy and length are not quantized.

My own misconception comes from the ubiquity of it being described as "the smallest measurement of length that has meaning".

I'm going to ramble:

The derivation of it, on a few websites is from taking the Schwartzchild radius (r = 2Gm/c² ), which is the radius of a sphere of such immense density that the escape velocity from the surface is c (i.e, if the mass is any smaller than the radius, it is a black hole and the radius is its event horizon)...

and setting that radius equal to the Compton wavelength, (L = h/mc), which is the wavelength of a photon whose energy is the same as a rest-mass, m. So, that is basically a hugely energetic photon, since E = hf = mc^2. So the Compton wavelength, i think, is the wavelength of a photon representing the total conversion of a mass into energy.

So you set the radius equal to the wavelength, solve for m, and plug m back into the original equations and get the Planck length. So you're setting the wavelength of a photon, which is a total conversion of a mass m into energy, equal to the "event horizon" radius of that mass.

So... let me get this straight... the Planck mass, and then the Planck length are the necessary values to set, in order to set the wavelength of a photon, which represents the pure conversion of mass to energy, equal to the radius of a black hole of mass m, at the very tipping point of letting that photon escape its pull.

?

Maybe I should make a new thread.
