Does the Schrödinger equation completely neglect the uncertainty principle? If so, wouldn't this imply that our intensity distribution has its own probability distribution?
NoMr-T said:In the Schrödinger equation we input values for energy/mass assuming we know with 100% certainty what these values for energy/mass are.

Do you mean you specify a potential, then solve the SE equation for a given potential? Or you plug in the values of the eigenvalues?Mr-T said:If you are not inputting any information into the T-I SE then how do you know what particle it is talking about?!

Mr-T said:If all direct observables have some uncertainty, won't this mess up our intensity distribution even more than the fouriers already do?
The Schrödinger equation is a fundamental equation in quantum mechanics that describes how the wave function of a physical system changes over time.
The Uncertainty Principle, also known as the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, states that the more precisely the position of a particle is known, the less precisely its momentum can be known, and vice versa.
The Schrödinger equation does not neglect the Uncertainty Principle. In fact, the Uncertainty Principle is a fundamental part of the equation and cannot be neglected.
Intensity probability refers to the likelihood of finding a particle in a particular location at a given time, as described by the wave function in the Schrödinger equation.
The Schrödinger equation is used to understand and predict the behavior of particles at the quantum level. It is a crucial tool in fields such as quantum mechanics, chemistry, and materials science.
