In November 1924, French physicist Louis de Broglie presented his revolutionary theory that has become one of the cornerstones of quantum physics.

De Broglie’s idea was dismissed at first by many of his contemporaries, but was verified three years later when Clinton Davisson and Lester Germer at Bell Laboratories in New York, US, observed ...

Rather, the probabilities of where we will observe them in an experiment can be conveniently determined by the calculus of the Schrödinger equation, proposed in 1926 in response to de Broglie, which ...

Louis de Broglie proposed the wave nature of electrons and other matter particles, he may very well have had musical harmonics in mind.

De Broglie based his idea on the observation that if light could behave as both a wave and a particle (dual nature of light), then perhaps matter could too. The concept of wave-particle duality was ...
