As a serious attempt for constructing a new foundation for describing micro-entities from a causal standpoint, it was explained before in [1, 2, 3] that by unifying the concepts of information, matter and energy, each micro-entity is assumed to be composed of a probability field joined to a particle called a particle-field or PF system. In this essay, the relativistic generalization of the PF theory has been considered. The equation of motion for the PF system is derived in a form which is Lorentz-invariant. Moreover, based on constitutional similarities to classical equations of motion, a well-defined relativistic time-independent Schrodinger equation is derived, which is one of our main achievements in developing a micro-relativistic physics of PF theory. This relativistic Schrodinger equation is solved for a relativistic micro-particle in one-dimensional box to find its eigenstate and energy spectrum.

The relativistic generalization of this theory and its invariance under Lorentz transformation has been proved. In this essay, based on the relativistic generalization of Schrodinger equation derived in [4], we solve the relativistic Schrodinger equation for relativistic micro-harmonic oscillator to find its energy. Also we obtain the energy spectrum of Hydrogen atom that is the main purpose of this paper. We see that the result is completely consistent with the relativistic correction to the Hydrogen's energy in first-order perturbation theory.
In a previous paper, we showed that the Hamilton equations of motion of a quantum particle are obtained as group velocities of the wave packet describing this particle only if the time dependent phase of a particle wave is proportional to the Lagrangian, not to the Hamiltonian as in a solution of the conventional Schrodinger equation. When a Lagrangian of relativistic form is considered, the wave packet of a quantum particle takes a physical form, with a finite spectrum of a cut off velocity (c). Based on a relativistic quantum principle, asserting the invariance of the time dependent phase for an arbitrary change of coordinates, we obtained the relativistic kinematics and dynamics, the electromagnetic field equations, the spin and the electromagnetic and gravitational interactions. When the Lagrangian is considered as a function of the Hamiltonian, we obtain a Schrodinger type equation with an additional term depending on the velocity and the momentum operator. Based on this equation, we investigate the dynamics of a relativistic quantum particle. In this framework, such a particle is described as a continuous distribution of conservative matter, according to the general theory of relativity. In an electromagnetic field, any time dependent phase variation is modified with a term proportional to a vector potential conjugated to the spatial coordinates and a scalar potential conjugated to time. However, this classical description tells us nothing about the structure of the physical world. Only Quantum Mechanics tells us something about the structure of this world. Namely, that this world is composed of species of identical quantum particles. On one hand, experimentally, it has been found that these particles are of a wavy nature. On the other hand, one could find that the simplest way to define a quantum particle is by a wave packet, with momenta conjugated to coordinates and energy conjugated to time Consider a quantum particle as a wave packet, and find that the group velocities in the coordinate and momentum spaces are in agreement with the Hamilton equations only when the Lagrangian is considered in the time dependent phases, instead of the Hamiltonian in the conventional forms of these waves as solutions of the Schrodinger equation. We define a relativistic quantum principle, and derive a wave equation for a relativistic quantum particle, the relativistic kinematics and dynamics of the particle waves, the Maxwell equations and the Lorentz force of a field interacting with the particle waves, the relativistic transform of such a field, and the spin as a characteristic of the particle waves. We consider a quantum particle as a distribution of conservative matter propagating according to the General Theory of Relativity. We obtain the dynamics of this matter in a gravitational field, the propagation in plane waves perpendicular to geodesic tracks, and equations of conservation. We describe the matter dynamics as a positively defined density and show that, according to the general theory of relativity, such a distribution can be conceive only as of a fragment of matter with a finite mass equal to a mass , as a characteristic of the matter dynamics, – the matter quantization. The group velocities of the Fourier conjugate representations in the coordinate and momentum spaces describe the dynamics of a quantum particle in agreement with the Hamiltonian equations. Under the action of an external (non-gravitational) field, the acceleration of the quantum matter has two components: 1) A component perpendicular to the velocity, given by the relativistic mechanical component of the time dependent phase, and 2) A component given by the additional field terms of this phase. A free quantum particle is described by a non-dispersing wave function , contrary to the solution of the Schrodinger equation. A coherent electromagnetic field, in resonance with a system of active quantum particles in a Fabry-Perot cavity, has a wave vector approximately proportional to the metric elements, as the resonance frequency is approximately constant – a gravitational wave can be detected by the transmission characteristics of an active Fabry-Perot cavity. In a constant gravitational field, a quantum particle undertakes a velocity and an acceleration, which, at the boundary of a black hole are null – absorption and evaporation processes at the boundary of a black hole arise only by gravitational perturbations. Generally, a quantum particle is described by a time-space volume, called graviton, with a spin 2, and a distribution of a specific matter in this volume, with a half-integer spin for Fermions and an integer spin for Bosons. A graviton Lagrangian is obtained as a curvature integral on a graviton volume, and a Hamiltonian tensor is obtained for the gravitational coordinates and velocities. In a gravitational field, the time space coordinates are deformed. In such a field, any plane wave remains perpendicular geodesic, while an additional acceleration is possible in the wave plane.
It is not possible to use the Schrödinger equation to describe the motion of a particle with relativistic effects since it is not invariant relative to the Lorentz transformation. However, the attempt to generalize quantum mechanics in the relativistic domain on the basis of the one particle theory is somehow difficult. So we find the appropriate equations on the basis of the relativistic invariance. To obtain the non-relativistic equations, we take the limit as the speed of light tends to infinity. This obviously recovers the Schrödinger equation. Under this heading, we extend the non-relativistic Schrödinger equation in the description of particles with speeds comparable with that of light. This extension should be consistent with the Lorentz transformation [ 12 ]. The characteristic feature of the relativistic wave equations is the spin which provides a useful gauge in the applicability of particular equations that describe particular kinds of particles. We have two types of relativistic equations, i.e., the equation with spin-zero due to Schrödinger and spin-half due to Dirac that describes the electron.
We consider a quantum particle as a wave packet, and find that the group velocities in the coordinate and momentum spaces are in agreement with the Hamilton equations only when the Lagrangian is considered in the time dependent phases, instead of the Hamiltonian in the conventional forms of these waves as solutions of the Schrödinger equation.We define a relativistic quantum principle, and derive a wave equation for a relativistic quantum particle, the relativistic kinematics and dynamics of the particle waves, the Maxwell equations and the Lorentz force of a field interacting with the particle waves, the relativistic transform of such a field, and the spin as a characteristic of the particle waves.We consider a quantum particle as a distribution of conservative matter propagating according to the General Theory of Relativity.We obtain the dynamics of this matter in a gravitational field, the propagation in plane waves perpendicular to geodesic tracks, and equations of conservation.
We consider a quantum particle as a wave packet in the coordinate space. When the conjugate wave packet in the momentum space is considered, we find that the group velocities of these two wave packets, which describe the particle dynamics, are in agreement with the Hamilton equations only if in the time dependent phases one considers the Lagrangian instead of the Hamiltonian which leads to the conventional Schrodinger equation. We define a relativistic quantum principle asserting that a quantum particle has a finite frequency spectrum, with a cutoff propagation velocity c as a universal constant not depending on the coordinate system, and that any time dependent phase variation is the same in any system of coordinates. From the time dependent phase invariance, the relativistic kinematics is obtained. We consider two types of possible interactions: 1) An interaction with an external field, by a modification of the time dependent phase differential with the terms proportional to the differentials of the space-time coordinates multiplied with the components of this field four-potential, and 2) an interaction by a deformation of the space-time coordinates, due to a gravitational field. From the invariance of the time dependent phase with field components, we obtain a mechanical force of the form of Lorentz’s force, and three Maxwell equations: The Gauss-Maxwell equations for the electric and magnetic fluxes, and the Faraday-Maxwell equation for the electromagnetic induction. When the fourth equation, Ampere-Maxwell, is considered, the interaction field takes the form of the electromagnetic field. For a low propagation velocity of the particle waves, we get a packet of waves with the time dependent phases proportional to the relativistic Hamiltonian, as in Dirac’s famous theory of spin, and a slowly-varying amplitude with a phase proportional to the momentum and this velocity. In the framework of our theory, the spin is obtained as an all quantum effect, without any additional assumption to the quantum theory. When a space-time deformation is considered in the time dependent phase of a quantum particle, from the group velocity we get the particle dynamics according to the general theory of relativity. In this way, the relativistic dynamics, the electromagnetic field, and the spin of a quantum particle are obtained only from the invariance of the time dependent phases of the particle wave functions.
We consider the two basic theories of the standard physics: (1) the theory of relativity, as a four-dimensional time-space description of our universe, with the invariance of the time-space interval which leads to the Lorentz transformation, and (2) quantum mechanics, based on the Schrödinger equation, with a solution called wave function. However, we find that this equation is very unsatisfactory, describing fully unlocalized free particles, any initially localized particle rapidly spreading in space, in disagreement with the fundamental Hamilton equations. In agreement with the Hamilton equations, we describe a quantum particle by propagation wave functions in the coordinate and momentum spaces, with the Lagrangian in the time dependent phase instead of the Hamiltonian coming from the Schrödinger equation. With the relativistic Lagrangian, we obtain wave functions describing invariant distributions propagating in space.
