It is usually referred to as Phonons for sound waves in solid. But, where it gets confusing, is in gases and air. Some still call it Phonons, others say, Phonons can only be used in solid states.
So what is the Quantum of Sound in Gases/Air?
And if possible, refer to any text which speaks of sound in gases as phonons or other. Thank you.
