Convergence and divergence between the ideas of de Broglie and Schroedinger in wave mechanics
Journal Article

· Found. Phys.; (United States)
This article discusses the historical similarities and differences between Schroedinger's and de Broglie's ideas on wave mechanics and gives a biographical account of their scientific relationship. Their arguments over questions such as quantum jumps, the viability of particles within wave mechanics theory, and the inclusion of space, time, and relativity in quantum mechanics are analyzed. The final section of the paper considers the overall role of Schroedinger's ideas in modern quantum mechanics.
