The paper considers the free spherical Dirac equation with a boundary condition at r = R which is a slight extension of the original boundary condition of the MIT bag model. We discuss the basis states and apply them for a diagonalization of Coulomb potentials. The obtained results agree quite well with the lowest bound states with κ = -1, +1 and -2 and their expectation values [Formula: see text]. There appear basis states with energies -mc2 < E < mc2 under certain circumstances of the boundary condition. These states are concentrated at the boundary.

AbstractIn the presence of spin and pseudospin (p-spin) symmetries, the approximate analytical bound states of the Dirac equation, which describes the motion of a spin-1/2 particle in 1+1 dimensions for mixed scalar–vector–pseudoscalar linear potential are investigated. The Nikiforov–Uvarov (NU) method is used to obtain energy eigenvalues and corresponding wave functions in their closed forms.

We investigated the approximate solutions of the Dirac equation for the generalized Yukawa types I and II under the framework of pseudospin and spin symmetry limits. We obtained the energy eigenvalues and the corresponding wave functions using the supersymmetry method. Closed form of the energy eigenvalues are obtained for any spin-orbit coupling term κ. We also discuss the energy eigenvalues of the Dirac equation for some well-known potentials such as Yukawa, inversely quadratic Yukawa, new Yukawa, Mie-type and Coulomb potentials which are the special cases of the generalized Yukawa potentials.

Quantum theory is awash in multidimensional integrals that contain exponentials in the integration variables, their inverses, and inverse polynomials of those variables. The present paper introduces a means to reduce pairs of such integrals to one dimension when the integrand contains powers multiplied by an arbitrary function of xy/(x+y) multiplying various combinations of exponentials. In some cases these exponentials arise directly from transition-amplitudes involving products of plane waves, hydrogenic wave functions, and Yukawa and/or Coulomb potentials. In other cases these exponentials arise from Gaussian transforms of such functions.

Topological Quantum

We present a general description of topological insulators from the point of view of Dirac equations. The Z2 index for the Dirac equation is always zero, and thus the Dirac equation is topologically trivial. After the quadratic term in momentum is introduced to correct the mass term m or the band gap of the Dirac equation, i.e., m → m − Bp2, the Z2 index is modified as 1 for mB > 0 and 0 for mB < 0. For a fixed B there exists a topological quantum phase transition from a topologically trivial system to a nontrivial system when the sign of mass m changes. A series of solutions near the boundary in the modified Dirac equation is obtained, which is characteristic of topological insulator. From the solutions of the bound states and the Z2 index we establish a relation between the Dirac equation and topological insulators.

Laplace Transformation Method

The spatially dependent mass Dirac equation is solved exactly for attractive scalar and repulsive vector Coulomb potentials including a tensor interaction potential under the spin and pseudospin (p-spin) symmetric limits by using the Laplace transformation method (LTM). Closed forms of the energy eigenvalue equation and wave functions are obtained for arbitrary spin-orbit quantum number κ. Some numerical results are given too. The effect of the tensor interaction on the bound states is presented. It is shown that the tensor interaction removes the degeneracy between two states in the spin doublets. We also investigate the effects of the spatially-dependent mass on the bound states under the conditions of the spin symmetric limit and in the absence of tensor interaction (T=0).

Retardation Effects

We investigate the influence of retardation effects on covariant 3-dimensional wave functions for bound hadrons. Within a quark-(scalar) diquark representation of a baryon, the four-dimensional Bethe–Salpeter equation is solved for a 1-rank separable kernel which simulates Coulombic attraction and confinement. We project the manifestly covariant bound state wave function into three dimensions upon integrating out the non-static energy dependence and compare it with solutions of three-dimensional quasi-potential equations obtained from different kinematical projections on the relative energy variable. We find that for long-range interactions, as characteristic in QCD, retardation effects in bound states are of crucial importance.

The covariant Faddeev approach which describes baryons as relativistic three-quark bound states and is based on the Dyson-Schwinger and Bethe-Salpeter equations of QCD is briefly reviewed. All elements, including especially the baryons’ three-body-wave-functions, the quark propagators and the dressed quark-photon vertex, are calculated from a well-established approximation for the quark-gluon interaction. Selected previous results of this approach for the spectrum and elastic electromagnetic form factors of ground-state baryons and resonances are reported. The main focus of this talk is a presentation and discussion of results from a recent investigation of the electromagnetic transition form factors between ground-state octet and decuplet baryons as well as the octet-only Σ0 to Λ transition.

In this paper, we study the Dirac equation in the Rindler spacetime. The solution of the wave equation in an accelerated reference frame is obtained. The differential equation associated to this wave equation is mapped into a Sturm–Liouville problem of a Schrödinger-like equation. We derive a compact expression for the energy spectrum associated with the Dirac equation in an accelerated reference. It is shown that the noninertial effect of the accelerated reference frame mimics an external potential in the Dirac equation and, moreover, allows the formation of bound states.
