- Descripción
- In recent times it has been paid attention to the fact that (linear) wave equations admit of ``soliton-like" solutions, known as Localized Waves or Non-diffracting Waves, which propagate without distortion in one direction. Such Localized Solutions (existing also for K-G or Dirac equations) are a priori suitable, more than gaussian's, for describing elementary particle motion. \ In this paper we show that, {\em mutatis mutandis}, Localized Solutions exist even for the ordinary Schroedinger equation within standard Quantum Mechanics; and we obtain both approximate and exact solutions, also setting forth for them particular examples. \ In the ideal case such solutions bear infinite energy, as well as plane or spherical waves: we show therefore how to obtain finite-energy solutions. \ At last, we briefly consider solutions for a particle moving in the presence of a potential.
