Abstract

In this paper we study singularities of propagators and NN-point functions for Dirac fields in a Coulomb potential, possibly with a tt-dependent smooth part for t<T<|t|<T<\infty. We show that the in and out Dirac-Coulomb vacua are Hadamard states for r0r\neq 0. Furthermore, we prove that the relative charge density of any two Hadamard states is well-defined as a locally integrable function including near r=0r=0. The results are based on a diffractive propagation of singularities theorem for the Dirac-Coulomb system previously obtained by the first and third authors, generalized here to the case of tt-dependent potentials.
