Relativistic Remnants of Non-Relativistic Electrons

Electrons obeying the Dirac equation are investigated under the non-relativistic $c \mapsto \infty$ limit. General solutions are given by derivatives of the relativistic invariant functions whose forms are different in the time- and the space-like region, yielding the delta function of $(ct)^2 - x^2$. This light-cone singularity does survive to show that the charge and the current density of electrons travel with the speed of light in spite of their massiveness.
