This is a review of formalisms and models (nonrelativistic and relativistic) which modify Schrodinger's equation so that it describes wavefunction collapse as a dynamical physical process.
We consider a model equation from [14] that captures important properties of the water wave equation. We give a new proof of the fact that wave packet solutions of this equation are approximated by the nonlinear Schrodinger equation. This…
We show that equation for radial wave function in its traditional form is compatible with the full Schrodinger equation if and only if a definite additional constraint required. This constraint has a boundary condition form at the origin.…

An alternative method is proposed for deriving the time dependent Schroedinger equation from the pictures of wave and matrix mechanics. The derivation is of a mixed classical quantum character, since time is treated as a classical variable,…
It is well known that Schr\"{o}dinger's equation is only suitable for the particle in conservative force field. In atomic and molecular field, a particle can suffer the action of non-conservative force. In this paper, a new quantum wave…
