    De Broglie Wavelengths & Electron Orbitals

    The de Broglie wavelength determines how the particle will diffract, or behave in other wave-like contexts. It is not the position uncertainty. Question: Is the DB wavelength related to the scattering cross section of a particle then? Consider a system of interacting particles like an...

    De Broglie Wavelengths & Electron Orbitals

    question on de Broglie wavelength I have a question on the fundamental physical interpretation of the de Broglie wavelength. The physical situation I am trying to understand is ions trapped in a low temperature environment such as electrons in liquid helium In QM a particle is correctly...
