Abstract
Moshinsky's problem is formulated and solved as a convolution integral. The initial data are discontinuous, giving the possibility of non-uniqueness. Asymptotic properties of the solution are deduced, using variants of the method of stationary phase. Comparisons are made with solutions of analogous problems for the one-dimensional wave equation and the Schrödinger equation.
