Time-independent Schrödinger Equation
We derive the time-independent Schrödinger equation ψ(x) by applying the separation of variables method to the original form of the Schrödinger equation (time-dependent Schrödinger equation) Ψ(x,t). We explore the mathematical and physical significance and importance of the separated solution obtained this way. We also examine the method of obtaining the general solution of the Schrödinger equation as a linear combination of separated solutions.
