Does the Blackbody Radiation Spectrum Suggest an Intrinsic Structure of Photons?

Photons are considered to be elementary bosons in the Standard Model. The assumption that photons are not elementary particles is assessed from an outlook of computational statistical mechanics. A prediction of variations in the shape of the blackbody radiation spectrum with polarization is made. A better understanding of the origins of quantum statistics could be crucial for theories beyond the Standard Model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
