Equation (14)

can also be obtained more directly by noting that the equilibrium distribution P(a) = G(a) must satisfy (6).

**) This is of course only correct because we have chosen the special form (6) for the Fokker-Planck equation.

The present work consist of two parts: In the first part we apply the method of quasilinearization to the differential equation describing the time development of the quantum-mechanical probability density. In this way we derive the master equation without resorting to perturbation theory. In the se
