What does a de Broglie wave look like?
Are de Broglie waves transverse or longitudinal?
Can they be polarized?
What about the de Broglie wave of a ground state neutral spin-zero Helium 4 atom?
What experimental evidence do we have that supports the detailed nature of a de Broglie wave?
I have always assumed that de Broglie waves were mathematically identical to electromagnetic waves, but I just realized there is no basis for this assumption, and in fact it must be false, unless there is an analogue to both the magnetic and the electric components of the electromagnetic wave. So what does a de Broglie wave "look like"?
