Damping Effect of Electromagnetic Radiation and Time-Dependent Schrodinger Equation

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

The inexactness of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation of a charged particle in an external electromagnetic field is discussed in terms of the damping effect of the radiation. A possible improvement is to add a nonlinear term representing this effect to the linear Schrödinger equation. Conditions for the nonlinear term are investigated and it is demonstrated that the obtained nonlinear Schrödinger equation may present state evolutions similar to the wave-function reduction and transitions between stationary states.
