Anomalous Relativistic Tunneling and Exotic Point Interactions

arXiv:0709.3495 · doi:10.1209/0295-5075/81/50001

Abstract

We examine one-dimensional quantum scattering of a Dirac particle off relativistic potential barriers. With proper considerations of Dirac sea, existence of anomalous tunneling at zero incident-energy is revealed for a particular type of relativistic potential having same magnitudes and opposite signs for scalar and vector components. It is also shown that this leads to an exotic short range limit of the potentials.
