A stochastic equation named as Micro-Stochastic equation is proposed
to describe the motion of a microscopic object assuming that the
object is interacting with a background field through a random force
and a associated friction force, undergoing a Markoff process. It is
shown that in one limit, this dynamical equation leads to the
Schroedinger equation in quantum mechanics when the friction
coefficient ˇ÷Inf.; in other limit, it reduces to
classical mechanics when ˇ÷0.
New physics might be expected when is significant
and is not too large.
In this stochastic approach, the physical quantities of a microscopic
object can take any possible values like a classical object; no
quantization is required. The nature of eigen values and quantization
of physical quantities in quantum mechanics are discussed.
