Are you talking about excitation of field?Delta² said:The "electron field" is oscillating. I am not talking about the electrostatic field produced by the electron due to its charge or the electromagnetic field due to the movement of electron, but about the quantum fermionic field of which electron is a quantum of energy. According to quantum field theory every particle has an associated field of which the particle is a quanta of energy of that field.
Well,I agree with you. I think you are right to some extent, until someone contradicts us.Delta² said:Sorry I am not particularly good with quantum field theory. Maybe my first post was not correct to "mix" the deBroglie wave with a wave in the fermionic field.
Dexter Neutron said:Every moving object has a wave associated with it.
A wave is a disturbance that travels through a medium, transferring energy from one place to another. It can be described as a repeating pattern of motion or oscillation.
There are two main types of waves: mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves. Mechanical waves require a medium to travel through, while electromagnetic waves can travel through a vacuum.
Waves are measured by their wavelength, frequency, and amplitude. Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs in a wave, frequency is the number of waves that pass a point in a certain amount of time, and amplitude is the height of a wave.
There is an inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency. This means that as wavelength increases, frequency decreases, and vice versa.
Waves behave in different ways depending on their properties and the medium they are travelling through. They can be reflected, refracted, diffracted, and absorbed. They also follow the principle of superposition, which states that when two or more waves meet, the resulting wave is the sum of the individual waves.
