A non-relativistic wave equation of second order in time for scalar fields

In this paper a generalization of the traditional non-relativistic Schrödinger equation is considered. It is a wave equation of second order in time and fourth order in the space coordinates for scalar fields. The equation has certain features, which make it a closer analogue of the Klein-Gordon equation than the traditional Schrödinger equation. However, the equation maintains the non-relativistic relation between energy and momentum.
