LECTURE 33
questions after lecture
first try these again
now think about these
- What is deBroglie's equation relating particle momentum to particle-wave wavelength? How big is your wavelength, compared to a nucleus?
- Why was deBroglie's 1929 Nobel Prize in Physics remarkable, aside from the revolutionary physics for which it was awarded?
- How many deBroglie wavelengths fit into the nth hydrogen orbit?
- Who told Schrödinger to read deBroglie's thesis?
- Whose equation is for relativistic electron waves and whose for nonrelativistic?
- Who predicted antimatter?
- Why didn't Einstein like Born's interpretaion of the wave function?
- What is meant by particle/wave duality?
