De Broglie’s Matter-Wave: Concept and Issues

Authors: Jean Louis Van Belle

This paper explores the assumptions underpinning de Broglie’s concept of a wave-packet and the various conceptual questions and issues. It also explores how the alternative – the ring current model of an electron (or of matter-particles in general) – relates to Louis de Broglie’s λ = h/p relation and rephrases the theory in terms of the wavefunction as well as the wave equation(s) for an electron in free space.
