- Full title :The dirac equation and its solutions / Vladislav G. Bagrov, Dmitry Gitman.
Summary
The Dirac equation is of fundamental importance for relativistic quantum mechanics and quantum electrodynamics, representing the one-particle wave equation of motion for electrons in an external electromagnetic field.In this monograph, all propagators of a particle, i.e., the various Green''s functions, are constructed in a certain way by using exact solutions of the Dirac equation.
