De-Broglie waves

[Geocentric]

# According to De-Broglie, the waves are associated with:

a)Moving charged particles only

b)Moving neutral particles only

c)Electrons only

Did you want to ask a question, or at least discuss something of the topic?

 

Otherwise there is not much point to the thread..

 

You can probably also find some info on the subject by searching the site :)

Yup! There's already a pretty good thread on this subject.

Just do a simple search...:)

What is immune to interference and diffraction? Photons, electrons, protons, neutrons, and C60

all give fringes by the book.

[Tim_Lou]

all particles.

wavelength=h/momentum

 

his hypothesis came from:

[math]E^2=(pc)^2+(mc^2)^2[/math]

for a photon,

[math]E=hf=\frac{hc}{\lambda}[/math]

[math]E=pc[/math]

[math]\frac{hc}{\lambda}=pc[/math]

[math]\lambda=\frac{h}{p}[/math]

 

deBroglie hypothesized that perhaps this equation works for all things, not just photons.

 

the diffraction pattern of electrons match his hypothesized.
