Oct 25, 2022 at 8:59 comment added FlatterMann And to complete the line of reasoning in the @Ghoster comments... write down the Schroedinger equation with a finite potential well and include unbound solutions into your Ansatz. Calculate the time dependent solutions and you will see "decay" reproduced by the equation "easily".

Oct 25, 2022 at 4:25 comment added Ghoster The usual example given is a ‘particle in a box” when the walls are impenetrable, but there is no real physical system like this. It’s an idealization which happens to be very easy to solve and thus makes for a good first problem in an introductory QM course.
Oct 25, 2022 at 4:18 comment added QUANTUM WORLD So what is the example of infinity potential well.
Oct 25, 2022 at 4:00 comment added Ghoster Why do you think that a nucleus is anything like an infinite potential well? Look at the potential energy curve between nucleons. It becomes horizontal, not vertical!
