What is the Broglie wave?
The Broglie wave, also known as matter wave, is a wave associated with particles, such as electrons or other subatomic particles, according to Louis de Broglie's hypothesis that all matter exhibits wave-like properties.

The Compton effect is the scattering of photons by charged particles, such as electrons, resulting in a change in the wavelength and energy of the scattered photons due to the transfer of momentum between the photon and the particle.

See lessWhat is the Doppler effect?
The Doppler effect is the change in frequency or wavelength of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source. It causes the perceived frequency of a wave to increase if the source and observer are moving closer together, and decrease if they are moving farther apart.

The principle of superposition states that when two or more waves meet at a point in space, the resultant displacement at that point is equal to the vector sum of the individual displacements due to each wave.
