Taking Schrödinger Seriously, Module 1: What Is the Schrödinger Equation?, by Conjecture Institute Fellow Maxime Desalle By the end of this module, you will be able to: -Identify each symbol in the Schrödinger equation and explain what it represents, -Describe what the wave function is and why it must be complex (here, complex means ‘having both real and imaginary components’), -Explain why the equation uses only the first derivative of Ψ, and what this implies about determinism, -Read the Hamiltonian as a specification of what physical situation the system is in, and -Articulate what the equation says, and what it does not say.
