This explains wave behavior and particulate events as in Bohm&#x27;s theory. Sadly, there are issues with photons as particles as their wave equations do not seem to allow for an easy particle interpretation unlike, say, electrons. Of course, the flexibility of QM allows for electrons to have a particle existence and photons to not: http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0404134 (I am a coauthor of that paper) And some videos to answer questions about BM: http://www.bohmian-mechanics.net/videos_faq.html</p><p><a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/quant-ph_0404134/">Paper and discussion history</a>.
