Maybe but waves are an adjective where as particle is a noun. Yes a
cluster or a swarm
may move together that has the appearance of waves which also can be
seen as a swarm of particles but again root of discussion must be a
noun. An accelerated beam is that of a single particle action that is
repeated. The particle alone cannot act as a wave unless it has
another particle that can be seen as a datum.
