From: jekob on 27 Dec 2009 04:46 on his equation he sis that the equation doesn't depend on time but according to the principle f uncertainty energy can not be measured with out affecting time. so how it can be a time independent equation ?

The time independent SWE is only valid for so-called bounded state or some other special static situations. In general you do in fact need a time dependent form. Unfortunately the fact that having time dependence in the equation makes things mathematically complicated results in a lot of professors and researchers simply not dealing with it. Patrick

If you would STUDY physics, instead of just making stupid guesses based on isolated phrases, you would know that the time independent Schroedinger equation applies only to steady-state situations, IN WHICH THERE IS NO CHANGE OVER TIME. For example, the ground state of an isolated atom. It can also be used in situations which are APPROXIMATELY time independent, for instance to compute transitions between atomic states that are long-lived compared to the duration of the transition.

Only in elementary CLASSES, where the purpose is to TEACH, not model systems accurately. The time dependence is not a significant increase in complexity, and modern analysis techniques and computer codes handle it just fine. The real limitations are on the overall complexity of the system, not just the time dependence (which is often of prime interest).... Tom Roberts

If you want this question answered, you only have to do a few simple things: 1) Stop talking like an idiot. You've been doing it for years - it is old now. 2) Stop hiding under anonymous proxies. 3) Pick a nym and stick with it.
