SUMMARY:Droplets walking on the impossible pilot wave
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Yves Couder and coworkers have recently reported the
  results of a startling series of experiments in which droplets walking on
  a vibrating fluid surface exhibit several dynamical features previously t
 hought to be peculiar to the microscopic realm\, including single- particl
 e diffraction and interference\, tunneling and quantized orbits. A corresp
 ondence is developed between this fluid system and de Broglie’s pilot wa
 ve theory of relativistic quantum mechanics. In the shallow water limit of
  the fluid system\, one can infer hydrodynamic analogs of Planck’s const
 ant\, the speed of light\, the Compton and de Broglie wavelengths. New exp
 eriments are presented\, and indicate the potential value of this hydrodyn
 amic approach to both visualizing and understanding quantum mechanics.
