5 days ago · The De Broglie Hypothesis is a fundamental concept in proposed by the French physicist Louis de Broglie in 1924. This groundbreaking idea introduced the wave-particle duality of matter, suggesting that not only light (previously understood to exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties) but all forms of matter have wave-like ...
In 1924, Louis de Broglie furthered the development of QM by making another bold claim: all particles possess wave-particle duality, where the momentum and energy of a particle are given by two relations: \ [p= \hbar k = \frac {h} {\lambda}\] and \ [E = \hbar \omega = \frac { {p}^ {2}} {2m}\]
Apr 9, 2024 · Drawing on the work of historians and personal analysis, we show that de Broglie was very close to the discovery of the Schrödinger equation (at least for the stationary one-electron problem).
Apr 9, 2024 · In this note, we discuss a historical point regarding Schrödinger’s discovery of the famous quantum wave equation in 1926 following de Broglie’s fundamental works published in 1923-1925 regarding the introduction of matter waves.
3 days ago · The double-slit experiment is an experiment in quantum mechanics and optics demonstrating the wave-particle duality of electrons, photons, and other fundamental objects in physics.
5 days ago · Louis de Broglie provided one of the most crucial insights that redefined how we imagine how electrons behave. De Broglie demonstrated that electrons had wave-like properties as well as particle-like properties.
3 days ago · CERN is well known today as a prestigious particle-physics laboratory, the world’s largest accelerator complex, the birthplace of the World Wide Web (see the article by Bebo White, Physics Today, November 1998, page 30), and a symbol of European integration and international cooperation after World War II. 2 Although it is a prominent model of Big Science and science diplomacy, little has ...
