Ultra-Relativistic Hamiltonian with Various Singular Potentials

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

It is shown from a simple scaling invariance that the ultra-relativistic Hamiltonian (mu=0) does not have bound states when the potential is Coulombic. This supplements the application of the relativistic virial theorem derived by Lucha and Schoeberl which shows that bound states do not exist for potentials more singular than the Coulomb potential.
