For free Klein-Gordon fields, we construct a one-parameter family of conserved current densities $J_a^\mu$, with $a\in(-1,1)$, and use the latter to yield a manifestly covariant expression for the most general positive-definite and…

In a recent paper [1], it has been proposed that relativistic wave-particle duality can be embodied in a relation that shows that the four-velocity of a particle is proportional to the Dirac four-current. In this note we bring out some…
In this work, we investigate the relativistic quantum dynamics of spin-0 massive charged particles in a 4D curved space-time, the generalization of a cosmic string space-time. We investigate the Klein-Gordon equation in the presence of…
In a previous work we showed that spin can be envisioned as living in a phase space that is dual to the standard phase space of position and momentum. In this work we demonstrate that the second class constraints inherent in this "Dual…

Probabilities of finding an antiparticle in an atom or ion containing a particle of spin 1/2 or spin 0 are determined. The spin 1/2 case was previously solved by Hans Bethe and his work is summarized. The spin 0 case is treated numerically…
