Asymptotic stability of stationary states in the wave equation coupled to a nonrelativistic particle

We consider the Hamiltonian system consisting of a scalar wave field and a single particle coupled in a translation invariant manner. The point particle is subjected to an external potential. The stationary solutions of the system are a Coulomb type wave field centered at those particle positions for which the external force vanishes. It is assumed that the charge density satisfies the Wiener condition, which is a version of the “Fermi Golden Rule.” We prove that in the large time approximation, any finite energy solution, with the initial state close to the some stable stationary solution, is a sum of this stationary solution and a dispersive wave which is a solution of the free wave equation.     

Center-of-Mass Energy Removal in Relativistic Three-Quark Models of the Proton

A variant of a squared three-body Dirac equation is used to determine center-of-mass energy effects in independent particle motion approximations for three quarks in the nucleon. A scalar linear flux tube potential is used to confine the quarks. The relativistic nearly massless three-quark system, in the rest frame where the total momentum is zero, has a squared energy that is 3/5 the value compared to when the quarks are assumed to move independently. This is smaller than the 2/3 energy ratio determined using the non-relativistic harmonic oscillator model. This analytic model has one parameter, the flux tube constant. Choosing the flux tube constant to reproduce the proton rest energy, results in the analytic wave function well reproducing the proton axial charge and rms charge radius. The proton magnetic moment predicted is 2.235, lower than experiment.

Causal green function in relativistic quantum mechanics

The causal Green function or Feynman propagator for the free-field Klein-Gordon equation and related singular functions, defined as distributions, are related to the causal time-boundary data. Probability densities and amplitudes are defined in terms of the solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation for a complex scalar field interacting with an electromagnetic field. The convergence of the perturbation expansion of the solution of the Klein-Gordon equation for a charged scalar particle in an external field is shown for well-behaved electromagnetic potentials. Other relativistic wave equations are discussed briefly.     

Self-force on a scalar point charge in the long throat

An analytic method is presented which allows for the computation of the self-force for a static particle with a scalar charge in the region of an ultrastatic spacetime which one can call the long throat. The method is based on the approximate WKB solution of a radial mode equation for a scalar field. This field is assumed to be massless, with a coupling ξ   to the scalar curvature is satisfying the condition ξ>1/8$\xi >1/8$.     

Anomalous behavior of a scalar particle in a globally regular space-time of a Schwarzschild black hole

The curved space-time Klein-Gordon equation in a globally regular space-time of a Schwarzschild black hole is solved, and its exact solution is obtained. The wave functions of a scalar particle inside the black hole are discussed by means of numerical analysis. The anomalous behaviors of the scalar particle in the central region of the black hole and in the interior neighborhood of the Schwarzschild event horizon are studied with the help of approximate solutions, which are compared with the exact one in these two regions.     

Scattering and bound states of spinless particles in a mixed vector–scalar smooth step potential

Scattering and bound states for a spinless particle in the background of a kink-like smooth step potential, added with a scalar uniform background, are considered with a general mixing of vector and scalar Lorentz structures. The problem is mapped into the Schrödinger-like equation with an effective Rosen–Morse potential. It is shown that the scalar uniform background present subtle and trick effects for the scattering states and reveals itself a high-handed element for formation of bound states. In that process, it is shown that the problem of solving a differential equation for the eigenenergies is transmuted into the simpler and more efficient problem of solving an irrational algebraic equation.     

Conformally Invariant Klein-Gordon Equation in Kaluza-Klein Theory

Linear time domain model of the acoustic potential field

A new time domain formulation of the acoustic wave is developed to avoid approximating assumptions of the linearized scalar wave equation that limit its validity to low Mach particle velocity modeling or to a smooth potential field in a stationary medium. The proposed model offers precision of the moving frame while retaining the form of the widely used linearized scalar wave equation although with respect to modified coordinates. It is applicable to field calculations involving transient waves with unlimited particle velocity, propagating in inhomogenous fluids or in those with time varying density. The model is based on the exact flux continuity equation and the equation of motion, both using the moving reference frame. The resulting closed-form free space scalar wave equation employing total derivatives is converted back to the partial differential form by using modified independent variables. The modified variables are related to the common coordinates of space and time following integral expressions involving transient particle velocity representing wave radiated by each point of a stationary source. Consequently, transient field produced by complex surface velocity sources can be calculated following existing surface integrals of the radiation theory although using modified coordinates. The use of the proposed model is presented in a numerical simulation of a transient velocity source vibrating at selected magnitudes, leading to the determination of the propagating pressure and velocity wave at any point.

Spinor Boltzmann Equation with Two Momenta at the Fermi Level

Based on the formalism of Keldysh's nonequilibrium Green function, we establish a two momenta spinor Boltzmann equation for longitudinal scalar distribution function and transverse vector distribution function. The longitudinal charge currents, transverse spin currents and the continuity equations satisfied by them are then studied, it indicates that both the charge currents and spin currents decay oscillately along with position, which is due to the momenta integral over the Fermi surface. We also compare our charge currents and spin currents with the corresponding results of one momentum spinor Boltzmann equation, the differences are obvious.

Reversal of Klein reflection by magnetic barriers in bilayer graphene

Massless Dirac fermions in monolayer graphene exhibit total transmission when normally incident on a scalar potential barrier, a consequence of the Klein paradox originally predicted by O Klein for relativistic electrons obeying the 3 + 1 dimensional Dirac equation. For bilayer graphene, charge carriers are massive Dirac fermions and, due to different chiralities, electron and hole states are not coupled to each other. Therefore, the wavefunction of an incident particle decays inside a barrier as for the non-relativistic Schr?dinger equation. This leads to exponentially small transmission upon normal incidence. We show that, in the presence of magnetic barriers, such massive Dirac fermions can have transmission even at normal incidence. The general consequences of this behavior for multilayer graphene consisting of massless and massive modes are mentioned. We also briefly discuss the effect of a bias voltage on such magnetotransport.     

Propagators for Scalar Bound States at Finite Temperature in an NJL Model

We re-examine physical causal propagators for scalar and pseudoscalar bound states at finite temperaturein a chiral Ut(1) x UR(1) NJL model, defined by four-point amputated fimctions subtracted through the gap equation,and prove that they are completely equivalent in the imaginary-time and real-time formalisms by separating carefiullythe imaginary part of the zero-temperature loop integral. It is shown that the same thermal transformation matrix ofthe matrix propagators for these bound states in the real-time formalism is precisely the one of the matrix propagatorfor an elementary scalar particle and this fact shows the similarity of thermodynamic property between a composite andelementary scalar particle. The retarded and advanced propagators for these bound states are also given explicitly fromthe imaginary-time formalism.     

Identical motion in relativistic quantum and classical mechanics

The Klein-Gordon equation for the stationary state of a charged particle in a spherically symmetric scalar field is partitioned into a continuity equation and an equation similar to the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. There exists a class of potentials for which the Hamilton-Jacobi equation is exactly obtained and examples of these potentials are given. The partitionAnsatz is then applied to the Dirac equation, where an exact partition into a continuity equation and a Hamilton-Jacobi equation is obtained.     

Will Small Particles Exhibit Brownian Motion in the Quantum Vacuum?

The Brownian motion of small particles interacting with a field at a finite temperature is a well-known and well-understood phenomenon. At zero temperature, even though the thermal fluctuations are absent, quantum fields still possess vacuum fluctuations. It is then interesting to ask whether a small particle that is interacting with a quantum field will exhibit Brownian motion when the quantum field is assumed to be in the vacuum state. In this paper, we study the cases of a small charge and an imperfect mirror interacting with a quantum scalar field in (1 + 1) dimensions. Treating the quantum field as a classical stochastic variable, we write down a Langevin equation for the particles. We show that the results we obtain from such an approach agree with the results obtained from the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. Unlike the finite temperature case, there exists no special frame of reference at zero temperature and hence it is essential that the particles do not break Lorentz invariance. We find that that the scalar charge breaks Lorentz invariance, whereas the imperfect mirror does not. We conclude that small particles such as the imperfect mirror will exhibit Brownian motion even in the quantum vacuum, but this effect can be so small that it may prove to be difficult to observe it experimentally.     

Relativistic wave mechanics of spinless particles in a curved space-time

Starting from the Klein-Gordon equation, the single-particle approximation for a reiativistic scalar particle in the presence of external electromagnetic and gravitational fields is performed. The nonrelativistic limit is obtained by a Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation on a Schrödinger-type equation. The results are then compared with those obtained in classical mechanics.

Finite motion of electrons in the field of microscopic black holes

In the single-particle approximation of the Dirac equation, a study is made of the finite motion of electrons in the field of small black holes (M < 10¹⁷ g) under the assumption that the black hole has rotation (a < M) and charge much less than the critical value (Z < 137). In this case, the motion of the particle is nonrelativistic, and the energy spectrum is hydrogen-like. The influence of rotation of the hole on the binding energy of the particle is small and unimportant for determining the damping of the levels due to capture by the hole. In contrast to a scalar particle, the damping of the electron states is not replaced by excitation for < m_jH + eV_H. The gravitational spin-orbit interaction has a strong influence on the damping. The probability of capture of an electron with spin anti-parallel to the orbital angular momentum is much greater than the probability of capture for a particle with spin parallel to it. In the Schwarzschild field, the damping of the S state of an electron is eight times less than the damping of the ground state of a scalar particle.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 56–62, August, 1980.
