Particle Solution to the Klein-Gordon-Dirac Equation in the Context of a Big Bang Universe

Don T. Froedge

Published Sep 1, 2014• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to develop a single solution to both the Klein-Gordon & Dirac equations that expresses both the QM and the classical aspects of particles. It is found that this can be done, but only in the context of a system that has an initial event (T = 0) and is expanding at c, thus it is consistent with a big bang representation of the universe. The equations are defined in geometric algebraic, and the KGD equation will be considered a single equation factorable into linear products of the two linear Dirac expressions, with a solution defined analogously to path integrals. The solution has botha Gaussian shaped amplitude, (classical), and phase, (QM) components satisfying the quadratic KG equation, and the linear Dirac expression. The equation differentials are not restricted to representing the normal QM operator replacement of p and E, applicable to the linear equation, but have a broader context in operating on the more complex function with amplitude and phase factors. The solutions represent the particle at a single event, thus the standard view of the solution being a probability amplitude field over spacetime is not applicable, but an alternate observational field is illustrated that demonstrates the connection of the solutions to the observed wave characteristics. The phase factors are as usual cyclic, but the amplitude factors exist only in the context of the entire interval. The amplitude factor of the solution is proportional to mass and thus should offer insight into particle mass ratios.

The Klein-Gordon equation with relativistic mass: a relativistic Schrödinger equation

P.-A. Gourdain

The Klein-Gordon equation describes the wave-like behavior of spinless particles since it is Lorentz invariant. While it seemed initially ripe for explaining the electronic structure of the hydrogen atom, the lack of a unconditional positive probability density really limited its applications. Yet, it is intimately connected with fermions. Any solution to the Dirac equation is automatically a solution to the Klein-Gordon equation. What is even more surprising, the Klein-Gordon equation for a free particle turns into the Schrödinger equation in the non-relativistic limit. In this work we show that these problems disappear when we use the relativistic mass instead of the rest mass. While the Klein-Gordon equation losses its Lorentz invariance because of this transformation, it gains most of the features present the Schrödinger equation, including the unconditional positivity of probability density, while keeping most of its relativistic characteristics intact, including the matter-wave dispersion relation. What is even more surprising, the non-relativistic, quasi-static limit of the Klein-Gordon equation with relativistic mass is simply the Schrödinger equation under all possible conditions. So, it can be argued that this Klein-Gordon equation is a sort of relativistic Schrödinger equation.

Stationary Solutions of the Klein-Gordon Equation in a Potential Field

Guang-Qing Bi, Yuekai Bi

We seek to introduce a mathematical method to derive the Klein-Gordon equation and a set of relevant laws strictly, which combines the relativistic wave functions in two inertial frames of reference. If we define the stationary state wave functions as special solutions like $Ψ(\mathbf{r},t)=ψ(\mathbf{r})e^{-iEt/\hbar}$, and define $m=E/c^2$, which is called the mass of the system, then the Klein-Gordon equation can clearly be expressed in a better form when compared with the non-relativistic limit, which not only allows us to transplant the solving approach of the Schrödinger equation into the relativistic wave equations, but also proves that the stationary solutions of the Klein-Gordon equation in a potential field have the probability significance. For comparison, we have also discussed the Dirac equation. By introducing the concept of system mass into the Klein-Gordon equation with the scalar and vector potentials, we prove that if the Schr\"{o dinger equation in a certain potential field can be solved exactly, then under the condition that the scalar and vector potentials are equal, the Klein-Gordon equation in the same potential field can also be solved exactly by using the same method.

The Logical Origin of the Dirac Equation

H.-K. Chan

This paper derives the Dirac equation as the logically forced relativistic completion of the de Broglie wave dynamics established in prior work of this series. Starting from the logical foundation that yields Lorentz/Poincaré invariance, we promote the non-relativistic framework (continuous spacetime, Fourier duality, local plane-wave structures, and probability conservation via statistical energy flux) to the relativistic regime. We show that the requirements of exact local relativistic plane-wave structures (with phase gradients satisfying the mass-shell condition $p^\mu p_\mu = m^2 c^2$), first-order time evolution (needed for clean probability conservation), and full Lorentz covariance together force the introduction of a specific non-commuting algebraic structure and a multi-component wave function. The Dirac equation emerges as the unique linear differential operator of order at most one in the spacetime derivatives that consistently glues these local structures across smooth backgrounds while preserving a conserved four-current with positive-definite time component. This multi-component structure arises naturally as the minimal algebraic consequence of the constraints, without any separate postulate for intrinsic angular momentum. In exact analogy with the emergence of the finite invariant causal speed in special relativity, the Dirac dynamics is revealed not as an ad-hoc linearization of the Klein--Gordon equation, but as the mathematically inevitable description of indivisible particles in continuous relativistic spacetime. The derivation thereby completes the single-particle sector of the series, demonstrating that core structures of relativistic quantum mechanics flow deductively from a small number of deep, nearly tautological commitments.

Unitary Theory of Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity

Eliade N. Stefanescu

Essentially, in this paper we propose a new description of the quantum dynamics by two relativistic propagation wave packets, in the two conjugated spaces, of the coordinates and of the momentum. Compared to the Schrödinger-Dirac equation, which describes a free particle by a wave function continuously expanding in time, considered as the amplitude of a probabilistic distribution of this particle, the new equations describe a free particle as an invariant distribution of matter propagating in the two spaces, as it should be. Matter quantization arises from the equality of the integral of the matter density with the mass describing the dynamics of this density in the phases of the wave packets. In this description, the classical Lagrange and Hamilton equations are obtained as the group velocities of the two wave packets in the coordinate and momentum spaces. When to the relativistic Lagrangian we add terms with a vector potential conjugated to coordinates, as in the Aharonov-Bohm effect, and a scalar potential conjugated to time, we obtain the Lorentz force and the Maxwell equations as characteristics of the quantum dynamics. In this framework, the conventional Schrödinger-Dirac equations of a quantum particle in an electromagnetic field obtain additional terms explicitly depending on velocity, as is expected in the framework of relativistic theory. Such a particle wave function takes the form of a rapidly varying wave, with the frequency corresponding to the rest energy, modulated by the electric potential where this particle is confined, the vector potential of the electromagnetic radiation, and the gravitational potential. In the gravitational field of a black hole, the velocity of a quantum particle is directed to the Schwarzschild boundary from the outside and from the inside, without passing this boundary. When the very strong gravitational field of a large agglomeration of matter has spherical symmetry with a radius smaller than the Schwarzschild radius, the quantum particles in the central region are crushed up to quasi-uniform distributions of matter, exploding with velocities much larger than the light velocity, towards the Schwarzschild boundary, but decelerating in the gravitational field and reaching this boundary only in an infinite time. The matter of a black hole has the tendency to concentrate around the Schwarzschild boundary, with a radius proportional to its mass. In this framework, we believe that our universe is a huge black hole, with the explosion of its central matter as the Big Bang-inflation process, and an increasing radius on account of an absorption of matter from the Total Universe, where our universe has been formed. In a gravitational wave, the time-space interval in the first-order approximation is the product of a gravitational invariant including the amplitude tensor, and a coordinate invariant including the polarization vector. The gravitational invariant describes a rotation of the metric tensor around the direction of the propagation of this wave, with spin 2, as a gravitational quantum called graviton. The coordinate invariant describes a matter rotation with the spins ½ for Fermions, and 1 for Bosons. From the new dynamic equations, for a free particle in the coordinate and momentum spaces, we reobtain the two basic equations of the quantum field theory, but with a change of sign, and an additional term depending on momentum, to the rest mass as the eigenvalue of these equations. However, when these eigenvalues are eliminated, the wave function takes the form of a wave packet of spinors of the same form as in the conventional quantum field theory, with a normalization volume as the integral of the ratio of the energy to the rest energy, over the momentum domain which gives finite dimensions to the quantum particle, as a finite distribution of matter in the coordinate space.

Phase Formulation and Exact Solutions for the Relativistic Klein–Gordon Field with a Time-Dependent Hamiltonian

Fu Jian, Gao Xiaochun, Xin‐Hua Li +1 more

On the basis of the phase formulation, we find the quantum and classical exact solutions and corresponding total phases for the Klein–Gordon (KG) field with a time-dependent Hamiltonian. The total phase includes both the dynamical and geometric phases (Abaronov–Anandan phase). The connection between the quantum and classical solutions is then obtained. From this connection, we discuss the condition under which the geometric phase for the KG field can be defined.

Fundamental Klein-Gordon Equation from Stochastic Mechanics in Curved Spacetime

Eric S. Escobar-Aguilar, Tonatiuh Matos, J. I. Jiménez-Aquino

Abstract This work presents an alternative approach to obtain the quantum field equations in curved spacetime, considering that sufficiently small particles follow stochastic trajectories around geodesic. Our proposal is based on a stochastic differential equation in which the noise term experienced by the quantum particles is a consequence of the stochastic background in spacetime. This fact allows the particles to describe erratic movements and locally the universe exhibits characteristics akin to a lake with gentle ripples rather than a flat unyielding surface. Building upon this foundational understanding, we investigate the influence of this background on quantum-scale particles without considering the metric to be stochastic, rather we let test particles move randomly around the geodesic of macroscopic particles. Their behavior aligns with solutions to the Klein-Gordon (KG) equation specific to this curved spacetime. As the KG equation, in its non-relativistic limit within a flat spacetime, reduces to the Schrödinger equation, consequently, we propose a compelling connection: the Schrödinger equation may emerge directly from a spacetime lacking local smoothness.
