Extract

This paper contains an attempt to formulate more rigorously the postulate of reciprocity (Born, 1939) and to solve the problem of finding reciprocal wave functions. We have not yet completely succeeded in this task, though considerable progress has been made; but it turns out that the original discussion has to be modified in several important respects.
