Relativistic de Broglie Frequency by Velocity

The de Broglie frequency is the frequency associated with a massive particle in motion according to quantum mechanics, accounting for relativistic effects.

The de Broglie frequency is proportional to the mass divided by the square root of 1 minus the square of the ratio between the velocity and the speed of light.

Formula

QuantityVariable["f", "Frequency"] == (Quantity[1, "SpeedOfLight"^2/"PlanckConstant"]*QuantityVariable["m", "Mass"])/Sqrt[1 + Quantity[-1, "SpeedOfLight"^(-2)]*QuantityVariable["v", "Speed"]^2]
