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.

As an extension of our recent work (Results in Physics 12, 147-152 (2019)), we show, both theoretically and numerically, that the breakdown of agreement between the non-relativistic and relativistic quantum dynamical predictions in the non-relativistic regime also occurs for an electron subjected to a time-dependent force.
