چکیده

In quantum theory, bound states are described by eigenvalue equations, which usually cannot be solved exactly. However, some simple general theorems allow to derive rigorous statements about the corresponding solutions, that is, energy levels and wave functions. These theorems are applied to the prototype of all relativistic wave equations, the spinless Salpeter equation.

Bound-States of the Spinless Salpeter Equation for the PT -Symmetric Generalized Hulthén Potential by the Nikiforov-Uvarov Method

The one-dimensional spinless Salpeter equation has been solved for the PT -symmetric generalized Hulthén potential. The Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method which is based on solving the second-order linear differential equations by reduction to a generalized equation of hypergeometric type is used to obtain exact energy eigenvalues and corresponding eigenfunctions. We have investigated the positive an...

NUMERICAL SOLUTION OF THE SPINLESS SALPETER EQUATION BY A SEMIANALYTICAL MATRIX METHOD (A Mathematica 4.0 Routine)

In quantum theory, the “spinless Salpeter equation,” the relativistic generalization of the nonrelativistic Schrödinger equation, is used to describe both bound states of scalar particles and the spin-averaged spectra of bound states of fermions. A numerical procedure solves the spinless Salpeter equation by approximating this eigenvalue equation by a matrix eigenvalue problem with explicitly k...

Upper limit on the number of bound states of the spinless Salpeter equation

We obtain, using the Birman-Schwinger method, upper limits on the total number of bound states and on the number of l-wave bound states of the semirelativistic spinless Salpeter equation. We also obtain a simple condition, in the ultrarelativistic case (m = 0), for the existence of at least one l-wave bound states: C(l, p/(p− 1)) ∫∞ 0 dr r p−1 |V −(r)|p ≥ 1, where C(l, p/(p− 1)) is a known func...

All around the Spinless Salpeter Equation

We review some important topics related to the semirelativistic description of bound states by the spinless Salpeter equation: the special case of the Coulomb interaction, numerical approximation methods, and a way to avoid the problematic square-root operator of the relativistic kinetic energy.

THE SPINLESS SALPETER EQUATION AND MESON DYNAMICS

Applying the variational method, the spinless reduced Bethe-Salpeter (RBS) equation is solved for the mesonic systems, and the mass spectra are obtained. The method is applied to the Hamiltonian with the Gaussian and hydrogen-type trial wave functions, and different potential models are examined. The results for the different potentials are in challenge in light mesons, while they are consisten...
