Klein-Gordon and Dirac particles in non-constant scalar-curvature background
Abstract
The Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations are considered in a semi-infinite lab () in the presence of background metrics and with . These metrics have non-constant scalar-curvatures. Various aspects of the solutions are studied. For the first metric with , it is shown that the spectrums are discrete, with the ground state energy for spin-0 particles. For , the spectrums are found to be continuous. For the second metric with , each particle, depends on its transverse-momentum, can have continuous or discrete spectrum. For Klein-Gordon particles, this threshold transverse-momentum is , while for Dirac particles it is . There is no solution for case. Some geometrical properties of these metrics are also discussed.
