Klein Paradox in Bosons
We show analytically that the Zitterbewegung and Klein Paradox, such well known aspects of the Dirac Equation are not found in the case of Bosons. We use the Kemmer-Duffin-Harish Chandra formalism with β matrices to arrive at our results.
متن کاملBosonic analog of the Klein paradox
The standard Klein paradox describes how an incoming electron scatters off a supercritical electrostatic barrier that is so strong that it can generate electron-positron pairs. This fermionic system has been widely discussed in textbooks to illustrate some of the discrepancies between quantum mechanical and quantum field theoretical descriptions for the pair creation process. We compare the fer...
متن کاملHistory and Physics of The Klein Paradox
The early papers by Klein, Sauter and Hund which investigate scattering off a high step potential in the context of the Dirac equation are discussed to derive the ’paradox’ first obtained by Klein. The explanation of this effect in terms of electron-positron production is reassessed. It is shown that a potential well or barrier in the Dirac equation can become supercritical and emit positrons o...
متن کاملBarrier Paradox in the Klein Zone
We study the solutions for a one-dimensional electrostatic potential in the Dirac equation when the incoming wave packet exhibits the Klein paradox (pair production). With a barrier potential we demonstrate the existence of multiple reflections (and transmissions). The antiparticle solutions which are necessarily localized within the barrier region create new pairs with each reflection at the p...
متن کاملQuantum simulation of the Klein paradox with trapped ions.
We report on quantum simulations of relativistic scattering dynamics using trapped ions. The simulated state of a scattering particle is encoded in both the electronic and vibrational state of an ion, representing the discrete and continuous components of relativistic wave functions. Multiple laser fields and an auxiliary ion simulate the dynamics generated by the Dirac equation in the presence...
