Abstract

The well known quasi-exact solvability of Schrödinger equation with Coulomb-like potentials is shown to survive a minimally relativistic improvement of the kinetic energy operator .

Relativistically corrected Schrödinger equation

M. Kissel-Phillip, W. H. Eugen Schwarz

The relativistically corrected Schr\"odinger (RS) equation [(${m}^{2}$${c}^{4}$+${p}^{2}$${c}^{2}$${)}^{1/2}$ +V-E]\ensuremath{\Psi}=0 is sometimes used to describe charged fermions, which are subject to strong Zitterbewegung. Since, however, equations of this type describe bosons with weak Zitterbewegung effects, it is mandatory to screen the Coulomb potential V in an r range of order h/mc, and also to add a screened spin-orbit potential. Thereby the singularity problems with Coulomb potentials are avoided. While the Pauli Hamiltonian must not be used in variational or eigenvalue equations, the RS Hamiltonian may be. An effective potential for the RS equation is derived, which yields relativistically corrected energies and wave functions for fermion systems with Coulomb potentials. Accurate numerical solutions for an unshielded single-center Coulomb potential are presented.

Relativistic Dynamics of a Quantum System

Gintautas Kamuntavičius, Gintautas Kamuntavičius

In this paper, we examine quantum systems with relativistic dynamics. We show that for a successful description of these systems, the application of Galilei invariant nonrelativistic Hamiltonian is necessary. To modify this Hamiltonian to relativistic dynamics, we require precise relativistic kinetic energy operators instead of nonrelativistic ones for every internal (Jacobi) coordinate. Finally, we introduce and investigate the Schrödinger equation with relativistic dynamics for two-particle systems with harmonic oscillator and Coulomb potentials.

Exactly solvable effective mass Schrödinger equation with coulomb‐like potential

C. Pacheco‐García, Jesús García‐Ravelo, J. Morales +1 more

Abstract Exactly solvable Schrödinger equation (SE) with a position‐dependent mass distribution allowing Morse‐like eigenvalues is presented. For this, the position‐dependent mass Schrödinger equation is transformed into a standard SE, with constant mass, by means of the point canonical transformation scheme. In that method, the choice of potential for the position‐dependent mass Schrödinger equation allows us to obtain the transformation that should be used to find the exactly solvable SE. As a useful application of the proposal, the equivalent of the Witten superpotential is chosen to be constant to find the position‐dependent mass distribution and the exactly solvable potential V(m(x)) allowing Morse‐type energy spectra. This V(m(x)) is shown to have a Coulomb potential structure and can be useful in the study of the electronic properties of materials in which the carrier effective mass depends on the position. Moreover, the worked example, the approach is general and can be applied in the search of new potentials suitable on the study of quantum chemical systems. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
