Solutions of the spatially-dependent mass Dirac equation with the spin and pseudo-spin symmetry for the Coulomb-like potential

Abstract

We study the effect of spatially dependent mass function over the solution of the Dirac equation with the Coulomb potential in the (3+1)-dimensions for any arbitrary spin-orbit $\kappa$ state$.$ In the framework of the spin and pseudospin symmetry concept, the analytic bound state energy eigenvalues and the corresponding upper and lower two-component spinors of the two Dirac particles are obtained by means of the Nikiforov-Uvarov method, in closed form. This physical choice of the mass function leads to an exact analytical solution for the pseudospin part of the Dirac equation. The special cases ($l=\tilde{l}=0,$ i.e., s-wave)$,$ the constant mass and the non-relativistic limits are briefly investigated.
