Graduate An electron's wave properties?
An electron doesn't crash into a nucleus because a complete wave path can only exist within certain radii, right? But whatever an electron is doing around an atom, it doesn't explain my original question. It seems that an electron can't exist as a point because it wouldn't be bound by...- jse7

Graduate An electron's wave properties?
What wave-like behaviors does a quantum particle have? Does it have a definitive location/coordiante, dimensions? Why, why not?- jse7

Graduate An electron's wave properties?
point particle? I don't understand, how can a point particle travel as a wave, wouldn't it be more like a string? How does a point particle overcome a potential energy barrier? Also, if the electron is a point particle traveling in a wave path, why can't its position be known absolutely?- jse7

Graduate Producing EB Waves: Accelerating and Decelerating Particles
How does a charged particle, that is accelerating or de-accelerating, produce an EB wave? What is actualy happening when an EB wave is produced? The EB wave has energy, what is happening to the energy of the charged particle? Is the charged particle slowing down, if so why is an EB wave...- jse7

Graduate An electron's wave properties?
sorry it is supposed to be "is it spacially spread apart to travel as a wave?"- jse7

Graduate An electron's wave properties?
As an electron travels through space, is it spacially spread apart to travel in as a wave? Over how many wavelengths is an electron spread as it travels along the wave path through space? Same question for a photon. Thanks for any help.- jse7
