De Broglie Optics
De Broglie optics concerns the propagation of quantum mechanical particle waves, their reflection, refraction, diffraction, and interference. The...

Relational Space-Time and de Broglie Waves
Relative motion of particles is examined in the context of relational space-time. It is shown that de Broglie waves may be derived as a...
-
Relativistic Hydrodynamic Interpretation of de Broglie Matter Waves
We present a classical hydrodynamic analog of free relativistic quantum particles inspired by de Broglie’s pilot wave theory and recent developments...

de Broglie Normal Modes in the Madelung Fluid
In an attempt to explore further the Madelung fluid-like representation of quantum mechanics, we derive the small perturbation equations of the fluid...
-
Observation of optical de Broglie–Mackinnon wave packets
de Broglie wave packets accompanying moving particles are dispersive and lack an intrinsic length scale solely dictated by the particle mass and...
-
Matter Waves
The discovery that light waves are also particles led to the bold suggestion that matter particles are also waves. These waves, or wave functions,...

A Time-Symmetric Soliton Dynamics à la de Broglie
In this work we develop a time-symmetric soliton theory for quantum particles inspired from works by de Broglie and Bohm. We consider explicitly a...

Rekindling of de Broglie–Bohm Pilot Wave Theory in the Late Twentieth Century: A Personal Account
David Bohm published his “Suggested Interpretation of Quantum Theory in Terms of Hidden Variables” some twenty five years after Louis de Broglie...

Conclusion: Matter is Composed of Waves
This book presents a revolutionary idea: matter is made of wavesWave! In traditional physics, matter is thought to be made up of massive...

Derivation of the Planck’s Relation, the de Broglie Relation, and Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle Based on the Maxwell Theory
In this chapter, we show that there is a logical transition from classical physics to quantum mechanicsQuantum mechanics. More specifically, the...

Wave-Particle Duality of Matter
Quantum mechanics is an important part of science that helps us understand nature. It started to develop in the 1900s and has been growing ever since...

A continuous beam monochromator for matter waves
AbstractAtom and, of late, molecule interferometers find application in both the crucible of fundamental research and industrial pursuits. A...

Waves and Particles in Matter
The phenomenon of wave propagation plays an essential role in electronics and in condensed matter physics. In electronics, a very important use of...

Do(es the Influence of) Empty Waves Survive in Configuration Space?
The de Broglie–Bohm interpretation is a no-collapse interpretation, which implies that we are in principle surrounded by empty waves generated by all...

Nonlinear-optical quantum control of free-electron matter waves
Although electrons and photons are the most widely researched elementary particles, their interactions outside of the confines of a material are not...

The Last Collection (1924–1925): Formulation of The First Quantum Statistics
Einstein’s gas theory, and the short but infinitely far-seeing remarks that he suggested, form the link between De Broglie’s...

Quantum Sensors with Matter Waves for GW Observation
Quantum sensors exploiting matter waves interferometry promise the realization of a new generation of gravitational wave detectors. The intrinsic...

Fuzzy dark matter and the dark dimension
We propose a new dark matter contender within the context of the so-called “dark dimension”, an innovative 5-dimensional construct that has a compact...
