Developing de Broglie Wave

Abstract

The electromagnetic component waves, comprising together with their generating oscillatory massless charge a material particle, will be Doppler shifted when the charge hence particle is in motion, with a velocity $v$, as a mere mechanical consequence of the source motion. We illustrate here that two such component waves generated in opposite directions and propagating at speed $c$ between walls in a one-dimensional box, superpose into a traveling beat wave of wavelength ${\mitΛ}_d$$=(\frac{v}{c}){\mitΛ}$ and phase velocity $c^2/v+v$ which resembles directly L. de Broglie's hypothetic phase wave. This phase wave in terms of transporting the particle mass at the speed $v$ and angular frequency ${\mitΩ}_d=2πv /{\mitΛ}_d$, with ${\mitΛ}_d$ and ${\mitΩ}_d$ obeying the de Broglie relations, represents a de Broglie wave. The standing-wave function of the de Broglie (phase) wave and its variables for particle dynamics in small geometries are equivalent to the eigen-state solutions to Schrödinger equation of an identical system.

Inference of Schrödinger's Equation from Classical-Mechanical Solution

J. X. Zheng-Johansson, Johansson, P-I.

We set up the classical wave equation for a particle formed of an oscillatory zero-rest-mass charge together with its resulting electromagnetic waves, traveling in a potential field $V$ in a susceptible vacuum. The waves are Doppler-displaced upon the source motion, and superpose into a total, traveling- and in turn a standing- beat wave, or de Broglie phase wave, described by a corresponding total classical wave equation. By back-substitution of the explicitly known total, standing beat wave function and upon appropriate reductions at classic-velocity limit, we separate out from the total a component wave equation describing the kinetic motion of particle, which is equivalent to the Schrödinger equation. The Schrödinger wave function follows to be the envelope function of the standing beat wave at classic-velocity limit.

Quantum Mechanics without Schrödinger: Bohmian Mechanics of de Broglie Waves for a Particle in a Box

John M. Masnovi

A formulation is proposed for the behavior of a particle in a box based on two assumptions: (1) particles have an associated phase which changes periodically with time as defined by de Broglie, and (2) the transmission of phase information follows optical principles, including reflection at potential boundaries and relativistic Doppler effects. This approach defines optimal trajectories by matching the phase of a source and its reflections. The momentum of the particle is guided by a de Broglie wave which follows the equation R exp {i[w0 (1-v^2/c^2)^-1/2][(t - vz)/c^2]} cos {[w0(1-v^2/c^2)^-1/2/c](vt-z)} This wave is generated by reflections occurring an even number of times, the phase and amplitude of which correspond to Lorentz transforms relative to the time and position, respectively. Nodes are produced by reflections occurring an odd number of times, which can be conceived to generate a wave traveling in the opposite direction and shifted by a phase constant π. Application to an individual particle in an infinite potential well affords the same results for energies and nodes as derived by the Schrödinger equation.

Dirac equation for electrodynamic model particles

J. X. Zheng-Johansson

We set up the Maxwell's equations and subsequently the classical wave equations for the electromagnetic waves which together with their generating source, an oscillatory charge of zero rest mass in general travelling, make up a particle travelling similarly as the source at velocity ν in the field of an external scalar and vector potentials. The direct solutions in constant external field are Doppler-displaced plane waves propagating at the velocity of light c ; at the de Broglie wavelength scale and expressed in terms of the dynamically equivalent and appropriate geometric mean wave variables, these render as functions identical to the space-time functions of a corresponding Dirac spinor, and in turn identical to de Broglie phase waves previously obtained from explicit superposition. For two spin-half particles of a common set of space-time functions constrained with antisymmetric spin functions as follows the Pauli principle for same charges and as separately indirectly induced based on experiment for opposite charges, the complete wave functions are identical to the Dirac spinor. The back-substitution of the so explicitly determined complete wave functions in the corresponding classical wave equations of the two particles, subjected further to reductions appropriate for the stationary-state particle motion and to rotation invariance when in three dimensions, give a Dirac equation set; the procedure and conclusion are directly extendible to arbitrarily varying potentials by use of the Furious theorem and to particle motions in three dimensions by virtue of the characteristics of de Broglie particle motion. Through the derivation of the Dirac equation, the study hopes to lend insight into the connections between the Dirac wave functions and the electrodynamic components of simple particles under the government by the well established basic laws of electrodynamics.

Doppler Shifted “In” and “Out” Longitudinal Matter Waves as the Carriers of Particle Relativistic Momentum and Energy

Dan Wagner

Momentum and Kinetic Energy equations are developed from the hypothesis that oppositely directed components of harmonically oscillating pseudo standing waves pass through a quantum particle center and can be represented by Longitudinal Matter Waves that carry the particle’s momentum and energy. The Doppler effect on the component wave lengths allows the net forward momentum and kinetic energy to increase with speed well beyond classical values. De Broglie (1925) issues with stationary wavelength and moving pulse rate are resolved in a different manner. Because a quantum particle is considered to be nothing more than the sum of “in” and “out” matter waves focused through its center, whatever happens to these matter waves determines the future location of that center. This opens the door to physical explanations for gravity, interference, and the slowdown of light in transparent mediums. Gravity, for example, is shown in section 6, to possibly be caused by the local gradient in matter wave speed near a large body like earth.

Proof that the De Broglie wavelength of a moving electron is equivalent to the Beat Frequency wavelength of the electron standing wave’s IN and OUT spherical wave components.

Declan Traill

The De Broglie wave that accompanies a moving particle is evidence of the wave nature of matter and is supporting evidence for Quantum Mechanics, yet this phenomenon can also be explained using only Classical Physics and the knowledge that an electron is a spherical standing wave.

About the Nature of De Broglie Wave

Isaak Man’kin

In this article, it is shown that if a particle is at rest and has some harmonic oscillation, then a traveling particle with a constant speed corresponds to a De Broglie Wave.In 1924, De Broglie proposed that particles of matter exhibit wave like behavior, the expression for which became fundamental in the creation of wave mechanics (quantum mechanics).The main equation for this is the Schrödinger equation, which in the case of free motion of a particle becomes the expression for the De Broglie wave.This hypothesis is supported by many early experiments on the diffraction of electrons, and later the development of modern physics.However until now, the origin of this hypothesis remains unclear.We show that the expression for the De Broglie wavelength can be obtained from a more general well-known concept, that any particle at rest has a corresponding harmonic oscillation that transforms into a wave of a moving particle with the help of relativistic change of coordinates (the Lorentz transformations).In this way, a De Broglie wave can be explained as a spacetime wave.
