Integral equations relativistic

The relativistic version (RQDO) of the quantum defect orbital formalism has been employed to obtain the wavefunctions required to calculate the radial transition integral. The relativistic quantum defect orbitals corresponding to a state characterized by its experimental energy are the analytical solutions of the quasirelativistic second-order Dirac-like equation [8]... 

Two coupled first order differential equations derived for the atomic central field problem within the relativistic framework are transformed to integral equations through the use of approximate Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin solutions. It is shown that a finite charge density can be derived for a relativistic form of the Fermi-Thomas atomic model by appropriate attention to the boundary conditions. A numerical solution for the effective nuclear charge in the Xenon atom is calculated and fitted to a rational expression. 

The coupled radial equations (4.185) are the relativistic analogue of (4.19) for bound states and (4.57) for scattering states. In order to set up partial-wave integral equations corresponding to (4.121) we need the partial-wave form of the free-electron state (3.170). This is set up by generalising (4.56) to include the spin and using it in the partial-wave expansion of (3.170), which becomes a four-component spinor. 

The integral equations for relativistic potential scattering are conveniently written in terms of a four-dimensional notation for the four-component spinor vp).

Schrodinger s equation has solutions characterized by three quantum numbers only, whereas electron spin appears naturally as a solution of Dirac s relativistic equation. As a consequence it is often stated that spin is a relativistic effect. However, the fact that half-integral angular momentum states, predicted by the ladder-operator method, are compatible with non-relativistic systems, refutes this conclusion. The non-appearance of electron... 

For the special case of non relativistic Hydrogen, the multiphoton transition rate can be obtained exactly using methods based on Green function techniques, which avoid summations over intermediate states. This approach was introduced in order to treat time independent problems, and later extended to time dependent ones [2]. In the Green function method, the evaluation of the infinite sums over intermediate states is reduced to the solution of a linear differential equation. For systems other than Hydrogen, this method can also be used, but the associated differential equation has to be integrated numerically. The two-photon transition rate can also be evaluated exactly by performing explicitly the summation over the intermediate states. 

It is possible to suggest that relativistic effects are operating within each wave-particle conceived as a four-dimensional space-time continuum, but that the equations of relativity should be inserted within those equations, descriptive of the properties of holographic matrices convolutional integrals and Fourier transformations.
