A diffusion process for charge distributions in a phase space is examined. The corresponding charge moves in a force field and under an action of a random field. There are the diffusion motions for coordinates and for momenta. In our model, an inner state of the charge is defined by a complex vector. The vector rotates with a great constant angular velocity with respect to the proper time of the charge. A state of the diffusion process is a (complex-valued) wave function on the phase space. As in quantum mechanics, we assume that, for the wave functions, the superposition principle holds. The diffusion process averages out vectors of inner states from different points of the phase space. A differential equation for this diffusion process is founded and examined. We demonstrate that the motion (described by this process) decomposes into a fast motion and a slow motion. The fast motion reduces an arbitrary wave function to a function from a subspace whose elements are parameterized by complex-valued functions of coordinates. The slow motion occurs in this subspace and it is described by the Schr\''odinger equation. The parameters of the suggested model are estimated. The duration of the fast motion is of order $10^{-11}$ s.

This work is an extended version of the paper arXiv:0803.2669v1[math-ph], in which the main results were announced. We consider certain classical diffusion process for a wave function on the phase space. It is shown that at the time of order 10−11 {\it sec} this process converges to a process considered by quantum mechanics and described by the Schrodinger equation. This model studies the probability distributions in the phase space corresponding to the wave functions of quantum mechanics. We estimate the parameters of the model using the Lamb--Retherford experimental data on shift in the spectrum of hydrogen atom and the assumption on the heat reason of the considered diffusion process. In the paper it is shown that the quantum mechanical description of the processes can arise as an approximate description of more exact models. For the model considered in this paper, this approximation arises when the Hamilton function changes slowly under deviations of coordinates, momenta, and time on intervals whose length is of order determined by the Planck constant and by the diffusion intensities.
We consider the problem of computing energy distribution of inner harmonic oscillations of a nanoparticle in its phase space, when the particle moves in a medium under certain temperature. It is assumed that the particle obeys the Brownian motion under the action of the medium and the force field given by a potential function. In the present paper we provide and study an equation describing the problem, generalizing the Klein-Kramers equation. It is shown that for large value of medium resistance, the process of energy distribution of inner harmonic oscillations of the nanoparticle is represented as the composition of a rapid transition process and a slow process. After the rapid transition process, the system goes to a quasi-stationary state. The slow process is approximately described by the standard Schrodinger equation used for description of quantum processes. Thus, the process can serve as models of quantum processes.

We consider the process of diffusion scattering of a wave function given on the phase space. In this process the heat diffusion is considered only along momenta. We write down the modified Kramers equation describing this situation. In this model, the usual quantum description arises as asymptotics of this process for large values of resistance of the medium per unit of mass of particle. It is shown that in this case the process passes several stages. During the first short stage, the wave function goes to one of "stationary" values. At the second long stage, the wave function varies in the subspace of "stationary" states according to the Schrodinger equation. Further, dissipation of the process leads to decoherence, and any superposition of states goes to one of eigenstates of the Hamilton operator. At the last stage, the mixed state of heat equilibrium (the Gibbs state) arises due to the heat influence of the medium and the random transitions among the eigenstates of the Hamilton operator. Besides that, it is shown that, on the contrary, if the resistance of the medium per unit of mass of particle is small, then in the considered model, the density of distribution of probability ρ=∣ϕ∣2 satisfies the standard Liouville equation, as in classical statistical mechanics.
We give an example of a mathematical model describing quantum mechanical processes interacting with medium. As a model, we consider the process of heat scattering of a wave function defined on the phase space. We consider the case when the heat diffusion takes place only with respect to momenta. We state and study the corresponding modified Kramers equation for this process. We consider the consequent approximations to this equation in powers of the quantity inverse to the medium resistance per unit of mass of the particle in the process. The approximations are constructed similarly to statistical physics, where from the usual Kramers equation for the evolution of probability density of the Brownian motion of a particle in the phase space, one deduces an approximate description of this process by the Fokker-Planck equation for the density of probability distribution in the configuration space. We prove that the zero (invertible) approximation to our model with respect to the large parameter of the medium resistance, yields the usual quantum mechanical description by the Schrodinger equation with the standard Hamilton operator. We deduce the next approximation to the model with respect to the negative power of the medium resistance coefficient. As a result we obtain the modified Schrodinger equation taking into account dissipation of the process in the initial model, and explaining the decoherence of the wave function.
Essentially, we solve the particle-field equations obtained in the matter distribution quantum mechanics. In the framework of this theory, a particle is described by a density amplitude function, we call wave function, as a packet of waves with the time dependent phases proportional to the relativistic Lagrangian. The mass quantization of such a particle, as a distribution of matter, is obtained from the equality of the spatial integral of the density with the mass as a characteristic of the relativistic dynamics of this matter. The particle dynamics, as a motion of a mass spatial distribution, is obtained from the equality of the wave propagation velocities with the distribution coordinate velocities. This description is a physical one, compared to the Schrödinger-Heisenberg description leading to unphysical results as a null velocity for the kinetic energy as a constant of motion, or Zitterbewegung. The description of a particle interaction with an electromagnetic field by additional Lagrangian terms, with a vector potential conjugated to coordinates, as in the Aharonov-Bohm effect, and an electric potential conjugated to time, leads to the Lorentz force, and the Maxwell equations. In the two conjugated spaces, of the coordinates and of the momentum, the dynamics of a quantum particle is described by propagation operators, depending on the coordinate-momentum product, applied to time dependent wave functions satisfying matter-field equations. Unlike the standard Schrödinger or Schrödinger-Dirac equations, depending only on the Hamiltonian operator, instead of the Hamiltonian these equations contain the Lagrangian, which, besides the Hamiltonian, include additional terms with an explicit dependence on velocity, as it is expected in a relativistic theory. We obtain the wave function of a particle-antiparticle system interacting with an electromagnetic field, as a wave packet of spinors propagating in space with finite dimensions, given by the finite definition domain of the density function, in the space of the matter-field momentum, as a constant of motion. We show that an electrically charged quantum particle, rotating in a central electric field, generates a vector potential with a magnetic field perpendicular to the rotational plane and an electric field in this plane. By a quantum transition, a photon is emitted in the particle rotational plane, with the magnetic field perpendicular to this plane, and the electric field contained in this plane. In this framework, the vector potential rotation is correlated to a particle momentum rotation, for the canonical matter-field momentum as a constant of motion, without any electromagnetic field radiated outside.
