If the electron creates an electric field around itself that can be detected,then the electrostatic field is real? So why was not the "virtual" photon found?
Yes, an electrostatic field can be detected using various instruments and techniques.
An electrostatic field is a type of electric field that is created by stationary electric charges.
An electrostatic field is created by stationary charges, while an electromagnetic field is created by moving charges.
Instruments such as electroscopes, voltmeters, and field meters can be used to detect an electrostatic field.
Detecting an electrostatic field can help in understanding the behavior of electric charges and can also be useful in various applications such as in electronics and in determining the safety of certain environments.
