Jainism : Through Science Thus De Broglie originated a new theory, the material particle - wave theory. Even an extremely minute particle can behave as a wave. He proved this on the basis of the relativity theory. Physics discussed in Jain Philosophical treaties corroborated the same theory. And regarding material particles and material waves De-Broglie gave a formula as under :
a = h/my, where a is wave length, m is mass of the particle, 'v' is the velocity of the particle and h is Planck's constant.
The velocity of particles used in light i.e. photons and of particles used in other electromagnetic waves is definitely 3,00,000 kms/ sec. It means that with reference to light and electromagnetic waves there is no change in the value of h/c. It means that as the mass of a particle increases, the wavelength decreases and as the mass of a particle decreases, the wavelength increases. Here the velocity of the particle is the same therefore the frequency varies as the variation of wavelength. If the wavelength decreases, the frequency increases and if the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases. And as mentioned the wavelength depends upon the mass of the particle. As the mass of the particle increases the frequency also increases.
Here we need to pay special attention to the fact that the mass of particles does not depend upon their own size, but according to the Jain principle, it depends upon the number of the most microscopic particles i.e. paramāņus. Therefore along with the mass of particles, their volume also should be taken into consideration. If along with the increment of mass, there is corresponding increment in volume, it makes no difference at all. Jain philosophical treatises show that in the space of one unit atom, there might be infinite atoms (paramäņus). And as the number of paramānus (atoms) increases in the space of one unit atom, paramánus become smaller and smaller in size and thus they become denser i.e. their volume does not change or increase but their mass increases. If the volume of photon, electron, proton, neutron, quark and other microscopic particles is the same, the mass of photon etc. and other electromagnetic particles must vary according to the variati of their frequency. It means that the transmitters transmit the waves possessing different types of frequency, really they emit microscopic
