John Bush has been working on de Broglie / Bohm like theories for years, and is making great headway. In the full video you can learn what John and his team and others have been working on. Yves Couder was one of his sparks. John has taken the experiments by Couder and created a solid mathematical foundation for them.
I include here my favourite part: John discusses how gravitational waves might be the mechanism for pilot wave mechanics.
I hope I’m not the one bombarding him with emails!
John W Bush – hydrodynamic quantum field theory - John discusses how gravitational waves might be the mechanism for pilot wave mechanics.
Consider Only General Relativity - Every old style, Newtonian theory in modern physics – which is all of them except General Relativity, do not fit well with GR itself. This is curious, as for instance the Dirac equation, the Standard Model, QM, QFT all work well with each other (hence the Standard Model). In an attempt to unify everything else […]
Quantum statistics in Bohmian trajectory gravity - T C Andersen 2019 J. Phys.: Conf. Ser. 1275 012038 – 9th International Workshop DICE2018 : Spacetime – Matter – Quantum Mechanics Abstract. The recent experimental proposals by Bose et al. and Marletto et al. (BMV) outline a way to test for the quantum nature of gravity by measuring gravitationally induced differential phase accumulation over the superposed paths of […]
Gravitation finally meets Quantum Mechanics in experiments - I think that the biggest news in a while in quantum mechanics is newly forming ability of experimenters to do quantum experiments with gravity. A fine example of an experiment already done is Phase Shift in an Atom Interferometer due to Spacetime Curvature across its Wave Function by Asenbaum et al. They conclude: Therefore, the phase shift […]
GR = QM – Susskind & I agree :) - So Leonard Susskind publishes a paper on arXiv Dear Qubitzers, GR=QM Which of course is what I have been saying all along. Of course Susskind’s paper is actually ‘of course’ not about QM emerging from GR, which is what I believe, and have good reason to follow up on. Instead Susskind says: Dear Qubitzers, GR=QM? […]
Rings coalescing - As someone pointed out on reddit, it looks like an inelastic collision. Singularities, de Broglie and emergent quantum mechanics comes to mind for me. The interaction causes a wave to propagate. After a time equal to the period of a wave on the ring, it separates into two. Click to access ACES_2013100819104983.pdf When I saw […]

A. Feoli also wrote a paper linking a wave of the double solution to a gravitational wave(in a linear filed approximation). It’s also interesting to remember, that GR has 2 degrees of freedom if boundary conditions are included.
“A geometric interpretation of de Broglie wave-particle model”
Abstract
“We present a solution of the linearized field equations of Einstein General Relativity that can be interpreted as a model of a de Broglie quantum object formed by a wave and a particle. In the absence of external fields the particle travels at a constant velocity with its energy density localized in a spacetime region of the order of its Compton wavelength. The de Broglie wave packet, moving with the particle, acquires a clear geometric meaning being interpreted as a special kind of gravitational wave.”
