Hey guys, I'll make it quick, De Broglie merged the photoelectric effect and the relativity to get his famous wavelength.
Then he applied it to particles with mass and it was demonstrated right experimentally.
The problem is that he assumes zero rest mass when doing the math, and that's just not the case of i.e. an electron.

Obviously not. Or else the equation wouldn't work. But even massless particles have momentum, which is exactly what is shown in the expression

The Broccoli Hypothesis

That's the thing, when finding the equation a zero rest mass is assumed, but then is used for non-zero rest mass particles.

Just use the relativistic mass.

Like I said. Photons have momentum despite not having mass. The momentum of other particles involves mass. That's where you think theres a problem but it's not an issue.

Triggered.
