Talk:Schrödinger field

[edit] Reason For Being

I added this page because this sort of thing is discussed in dozens of places, each place with a different name. Theres the "Coherent state path integral" in Negele and Orland, there is the "Gross Pitaevski equation" in BEC theory. There is the "Bogoliubov DeGennes Equation" in superconductivity and the "nonlinear Schrodinger equation" in fiber-optics. It's all the same thing. It confuses people, because there's very little conceptual relation to the equation for the quantum mechanical wavefunction, other than obeying the same equation.Likebox 19:06, 8 October 2007 (UTC)
