1762.0. "differential eqns <--> quantum mechanics" by MAST::ARRIGHI (It&#039;s these Klingon crystals, Captain.) Fri May 28 1993 21:14

    I also posted this question in PHYSICS notes.
    
    Can someone tell me the form of the differential equations one may
    encounter in the study of quantum mechanics?

1762.1Schrodinger's equationNICCTR::DOSSAThu Jun 17 1993 15:599
    The most obvious commonly found equation in quantum mechanics is
    Schrodinger's equation, which is a Hamiltonian for the system.
    
    It is written (well, in ascii) as
    
    -hbar    2
    ----- del  psi + V(r) = E*psi
