On the motion of a single particle near a nodal line in the de Broglie-Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics. (English) Zbl 1031.81005

Summary: We show that in the de Broglie-Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics the motion of a single particle near a nodal line is ruled by simple laws. A numerical investigation supports the validity of these laws. Consequences on the appearance of chaotic motion are also discussed.
