Louis De Broglie’s experiment

چکیده
Louis de Broglie’s celebrated hypothesis transfers a problem of representation of optics to the quantum theories. Let us suppose that the fact that originated the problem in optics is the following, “The images obtained by optical instruments are limited by diffraction. Is the diffraction phenomenon exclusively restricting of the information contained in the image or does it have some physical meaning by itself?” This considered as a problem of measurement of the radiative field does not pose the question of tracing well-defined processes in the sense of the light quantum concept. Despite this the application thereto of quantum formalism makes the essentially inferring statistical nature of measurement forecasting most important. We suggest avoiding the probabilistic conception of measurement by replacing the wave-corpuscle dualistic principle with the duality one. The latter is a basic feature of projective geometry. Referring to it we shall try to include the diffraction in a geometrical model of optics and interpret in that coherent schema the point -plane “wave” dual solution. We show what experimental substantiation the proposed duality has. Lastly, we again discuss the experimental basis of wave-corpuscle

Interpretation of quantum mechanics by the double solution theory
EDITOR’S NOTE. In this issue of the Annales, we are glad to present an English translation of one of Louis de Broglie’s latest articles, as a kind of gift to all physicists abroad who are not well acquainted with the double solution theory, or do not read French. Louis de Broglie of course wrote the original paper in his mother tongue, which he mastered with utmost elegance, but perhaps conside...
متن کاملElectron channeling resonance and de Broglie’s internal clock
Experimental work in electron channeling in silicon crystals has yielded a resonance suggestive of de Broglie’s internal clock for the electron, but with a Monte Carlo simulated frequency twice that of de Broglie’s. An explanation is provided based on a previously developed four-dimensional model of the electron. The additional spatial degree of freedom resolves a large number of physical and m...

Electron time, mass and zitter
de Broglie’s original idea that the electron has an internal clock has recently received experimental confirmation by measuring the period of the clock in an electron channeling experiment. This result has been explained by a new model of the electron, called the zitter model because it incorporates Schroedinger’s qualitative zitterbewegung concept into a fully specified interacting particle mo...
