Believing in the symmetry of nature, Broglie postulated that ordinary particles such as electrons may also have wave characteristics.
Photons have energy and momentum just as material particles do; they also have wave characteristics, such as wavelength and frequency.
The laws of quantum mechanics dictate that electrons have wave properties and that the properties of an electron can be summed up in what is called a wave function.
By analogy with the wave and particle behaviour of light that had already been established experimentally, the French physicist Louis de Broglie suggested (1924) that particles might have wave properties in addition to particle properties.
Let's say it's a rain sound effect and now you're on a beach so you have wave sounds, too – but if you do that, if you play two looping sound files simultaneously, the engine crashes.
Because of the politicised nature of our profession we have wave after wave of tinkering and change from our political masters – but I don't think [the prospect of change under Corbyn] is as scary as the continual level of ludicrous hyper-accountability we're under.
