Quantum Mechanics as a Classical Theory XV: Thermodynamical Derivation
Abstract
Description
We present in this continuation paper a new axiomatic derivation of the Schrödinger equation from three basic postulates. This new derivation sheds some light on the thermodynamic character of the quantum formalism. We also show the formal connection between this derivation and the one previously done by other means. Some considerations about metaestability are also drawn. We return to an example previously developed to show how the connection between both derivations works.
