see my reply to you, today, above,
on the unfortunate de Broglie photonthingie. (like,
if there is *one thing* that is not a particle,
it is light. as an exercise,
find one thing that might not have a wave-function .-)

A moving particle has an associated aether wave. The particle occupies
a very small region of the wave. The particle ALWAYS enters and exits
a single slit in a double slit experiment. The associated aether wave
enters and exits both slits. The wave creates interference upon
exiting the slits which alters the direction the particle travels.
Detecting the particle causes decoherence of the associated aether
wave and there is no interference.

If you want to conceptually consider the 'particle' associated with a
photon to be a very small region of the wave itself where it is
detected as a particle then that is correct. The 'particle' associated
with a photon ALWAYS enters and exits a single slit and the wave
associated with a photon enters and exits both slits.

The particle does not interfere with itself. The associated wave exits
the both slits and creates interference which alters the direction the
particle travels.

see my reply, above, and answer *it*, there. anyway,
a wave of light just does not need a particle (to guide it,
as de Broglie might have said), other than those
of the "vacuum" taht it dysturbs, electromeagnetically;
what could be simpler than that?

the wave "always" enters all slits.
just like water through breakwaters.

'Interpretation of quantum mechanics
by the double solution theory
Louis de BROGLIE'

http://www.ensmp.fr/aflb/AFLB-classiques/aflb124p001.pdf

"I called this relation, which determines the particle's motion in the
wave, "the guidance formula". It may easily be generalized to the case
of an external field acting on the particle."

de Broglie is saying the wave guides the particle. de Broglie is also
saying this "guidance formula" thought of as an external field acting
on the particle.

The wave and the particle co-exist, but they do not have to be one in
the same.

For something as complex as a C-60 molecule, the external field acting
on the particle is the associated aether wave.

The wave associated with a photon enters and exits both slits but the
'particle' associated with a photon enters and exits a single slit. In
terms of a photon, consider the 'particle' to be a very small region
of the wave itself.

To All Photon size will be an unknown Size of its waves Will always
be known. Size of photon waves is what we see. What we have machines
to detect,and what tells use both size and age of universe. That is
reality TreBert
