Eulerian and Newtonian dynamics of quantum particles

Abstract

We derive the classical equations of hydrodynamic type (Euler equation and the continuity equation) from which the Schrodinger equation follows as a limit case. It is shown that the statistical ensemble corresponding to quantum system and described by the Schrodinger equation, can be considered as an inviscid gas obeying the ideal gas law with quickly oscillating sign-alternating temperature. This statistical ensemble performs the complex movements consisting of smooth average movement and fast oscillations. It is shown that average movements of statistical ensemble are described by Schrodinger equation. A model of quantum motion within the limits of classical mechanics which corresponds to the considered hydrodynamic system is suggested.
