Solution of the Dirac Equation for Potential Interaction
arXiv:math-ph/0211049 · doi:10.1142/S0217751X03015751
Abstract
An effective approach for solving the three-dimensional Dirac equation for spherically symmetric local interactions, which we have introduced recently, is reviewed and consolidated. The merit of the approach is in producing Schrodinger-like equation for the spinor components that could simply be solved by correspondence with well-known exactly solvable non-relativistic problems. Taking the nonrelativistic limit will reproduce the nonrelativistic problem. The approach has been used successfully in establishing the relativistic extension of all classes of shape invariant potentials as well as other exactly solvable nonrelativistic problems. These include the Coulomb, Oscillator, Scarf, Poschl-Teller, Woods-Saxon, etc.
