Connection Between the Dirac and Schrodinger Equations

In the presence of electric and magnetic fields the Dirac equation is modified to [Pg.207]

In the time-independent case the Dirac equation may be written as [Pg.207]

Here T l and T s arc (large and small) two-component wave functions which include the a and /3 spin functions. The latter equation can be solved for T s. [Pg.207]

The term involving jr ir = is the usual kinetic energy operator. The vector product (ji X ji) gives [Pg.208]

The first and last terms are zero (since a x a = 0). With p = i the other two yield [Pg.208]

The two last terms cancel (since a x b = —b x a), and the curl of the vector potential is the magnetic field, eq. (8.9). The final result is [Pg.208]

In this section, we derive the two-component Pauli equation from the Dirac equation in external electromagnetic fields. It is also desirable to recover the Schrodinger equation in order to see the connection between relativistic theory and nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. For this purpose, we rewrite Eq. [Pg.185]
