The Schrödinger-Newton equation as non-relativistic limit of self-gravitating Klein-Gordon and Dirac fields

Abstract

In this paper we show that the Schrödinger-Newton equation for spherically symmetric gravitational fields can be derived in a WKB-like expansion in 1/c from the Einstein-Klein-Gordon and Einstein-Dirac system.
