Relativistic quantum mechanics of bosons

P Ghose, D Home, MNS Roy - Physics Letters A, 1993 - Elsevier
We show that it is possible to use the Klein-Gordon, Proca and Maxwell formulations to
construct multi-component relativistic configuration space wavefunctions of spin-0 and spin …

On the quantum-mechanics of a single photon

MKH Kiessling, AS Tahvildar-Zadeh - Journal of Mathematical Physics, 2018 - pubs.aip.org
It is shown that a Dirac (-type) equation for a rank-two bi-spinor fieldψph on Minkowski
(configuration) spacetime furnishes a Lorentz-covariant quantum-mechanical wave equation …

Relativistic quantum mechanics of spin-0 and spin-1 bosons

P Ghose - Foundations of Physics, 1996 - Springer
It is shown that below the threshold of pair creation, a consistent quantum mechanical
interpretation of relativistic spin-0 and spin-1 particles (both massive and mussless) is …

Hamiltonians and Wave Equations for Particles of Spin 0 and Spin 12 with Nonzero Mass

V Arunasalam - American Journal of Physics, 1970 - pubs.aip.org
The formal mathematical structure of the truly Hamiltonian formulations of nonrelativistic and
relativistic quantum mechanics is critically examined for both spin 0 and spin 1 2 particles …

Quantum physics, relativity and complex space-time: Towards a new synthesis

G Kaiser - North-Holland Math. Stud., 1990 - inspirehep.net
The positivity of the energy in relativistic quantum mechanics implies that wave functions can
be continued analytically to the forward tube T in complex spacetime. For Klein-Gordon …

Generalized charge in the eight-component spin-1/2 wave equation

JD Edmonds - Foundations of Physics, 1973 - Springer
A conserved current is given for the hypermass generalization of the Dirac equation. The
generalization of charge to an invariant quaternion is given which provides insight into a …

New arbitrary-spin wave equations for (j, 0)⊕(0, j) matter fields without kinematic acausality and constraints

DV Ahluwalia, DJ Ernst - Physics Letters B, 1992 - Elsevier
Following Weinberg, we note that for arbitrary spin the covariant spinors and the field
operators can be constructed directly from Lorentz covariance. The propagator may then be …

Point-form quantum field theory

EP Biernat, WH Klink, W Schweiger, S Zelzer - Annals of Physics, 2008 - Elsevier
We examine canonical quantization of relativistic field theories on the forward hyperboloid, a
Lorentz-invariant surface of the form xμxμ= τ2. This choice of quantization surface implies …
