are imaginary numbers a part of nature? The wave function is used in quantum mechanics to predict the values of position, energy, and momentum of particles. Is the wave function real or complex? We will try and guess the equation that the wave function solves, by starting with a solution and using Euler's formula, and ultimately derive Schrodinger's partial differential equation, which is the basis of all quantum mechanics. It will include Einstein's postulate that the energy of a photon is given by Planck's constant times the angular frequency.
