[QUOTE="drvrm, post: 5439406, member: 527528"] de Broglie relations are used both in relativistic and non relativistic quantum mechanics; meaning thereby that when velocities are small compared to c, vel of light one can use non relativistic expression for momentum and if velocities are comparable to c ,the relativistic momentum may be used. Using two formulas from [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_relativity']special relativity[/URL], one for the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relativistic_momentum']relativistic momentum[/URL] and one for the energy [ATTACH=full]200224[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]200225[/ATTACH] where m0 is rest mass of the particle . see for details: [URL]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_wave#Historical_context[/URL] [/QUOTE]
