Hi,
I am trying to understand whether quantum theory provides any sort of physical interpretation of matter waves. So far, I have been attempting to work my through some of the developments, but possibly failing to grasp what appear to be some fairly fundamental issues. Therefore, I was hoping that by listing these issues, different members of this forum might be able to clarify some of the specific points raised. I will expand the details of each issue in subsequent posts.

- deBroglie’s assumptions
- the matter wave model
- matter wave dispersion
- Schrodinger’s wave derivation
