Currently Playing: Pilot-wave theory (part 1): the origin of de Broglie's matter waves

Buy me a coffee and support the channel: https://ko-fi.com/jkzero Presentation of the groundbreaking but less-known theory of quantum mechanics proposed by Louis de Broglie in 1923. Although incomplete, this corresponds to the early development of de Broglie's pilot-wave theory.
