Apr 29, 2019 at 18:16 comment added Marcus Müller I definitely like the approach of painting the bigger picture! As said in my commentsw, there's a lot of good signal processing questions in there, I just wanted to manage your expectations regarding the physics questions.
Apr 29, 2019 at 16:15 comment added Knyq I would welcome references if there is any that treat the problem in question with clear answers.
Apr 29, 2019 at 16:11 comment added Knyq I'm aware of the wave-particle representation for photons and I understand that the background of this question is physics related. But this doesn't make all the underlying signal-related question less worth of an answer. I could still break the question down into valid signal processing questions like "What is the bandwidth of a sampled shot noise in the calculation of its noise power" or "how does the noise power of a sampled Poisson process changes with sampling time". They would just lack the bigger picture, which I think helps framing the problem.
Apr 27, 2019 at 7:10 comment added Marcus Müller so, that's the physical basis which I'd assume was the whole point of your simulation to show – if this is news to you, get a book about modern physics!
Apr 27, 2019 at 7:09 comment added Marcus Müller there's is quite a lot of signal simulation questions in there that make a lot of sense in the context of this site, but I think the central questions you're asking are all physical. That would be relatively off-topic here, so instead of an answer, let me just give a comment: Yes, light has this wave-particle dualism. In the intensity distribution ("statistics for arbitrarily long observations") it behaves like a wave – exposing properties like diffraction, refraction, interference. When it comes to energy delivery, it acts like particles – like quantums of energy being delivered.
