Derivation of Schrödinger's equation from stochastic electrodynamics

Abstract

Using exclusively classical arguments, an equation similar to Schrödinger's equation is derived within the framework of stochastic electrodynamics.

This equation, when compared to Schrödinger's, has two extra terms. It is shown that, for a harmonic oscillator, these terms are negligible as compared to the ground-state average energy. Moreover, with a good approximation, they cancel each other.
