With the method of rotating the state vector space, the free particle Dirac's equation is easly solved. The results in the ref.[3] are discussed further.
Uses the non-relativistic limit of the integro-differential formulation of the Dirac equation in order to find an effective Schrodinger equation which, solved in the well known non-relativistic free-particle basis, gives approximately the same results (the probability amplitudes) as the Dirac equation for non-relativistic states written in terms of the free-particle spinors. Effective Hamiltonians for the electromagnetic and pseudoscalar interactions are derived. Comparison with the results of the Foldy-Wouthuysen method (1950) for the electromagnetic case is also achieved.
In this paper, we solve the quaternionic Dirac equation [Formula: see text] in the real Hilbert space, and we ascertain that their free particle solutions set comprises eight elements in the case of a massive particle, and a four elements solutions set in the case of a massless particle, a richer situation when compared to the four elements solutions set of the usual complex Dirac equation [Formula: see text]. These free particle solutions were unknown in the previous solutions of anti-Hermitian quaternionic quantum mechanics, and constitute an essential element in order to build a quaternionic quantum field theory [Formula: see text].
