"Revisiting Louis de Broglie's famous 1924 paper in the Philosophical Magazine";
Philosophical Magazine Letters, 86 (2006), 7; 405 - 410.



English abstract:
De Broglie's contribution in the Philosophical Magazine from 1924 is fascinating
lrom many standpoints: for its moderate use of mathematics, the close connection
to Einstein's special theory of relativity, and of course for the proposal of matter
waves. We revisit this mostly speculative publication, which contributed crucially
to the birth of quantum mechanics.
