Abstract

In the search to understand the dark issues of astrophysics, a fundamental reexamination of mechanical accounting is necessary, and the most basic of all mechanics is Newton’s second law involving force, mass and acceleration. In this chapter, we briefly summarise some of the major ideas and outcomes presented for the proposed dual particle-wave mechanical model given by Eqs. (3.4) or (12.3). The mathematics underpinning the model is motivated from the use of potentials in electromagnetism, while the physical idea originates from de Broglie’s idea of the simultaneous existence of both particle and wave.
