In this paper we study the dispersive properties of a two dimensional massless Dirac equation perturbed by an Aharonov--Bohm magnetic field. Our main results will be a family of pointwise decay estimates and a full range family Strichartz…

Resonance plays critical roles in the formation of many physical phenomena, and several methods have been developed for the exploration of resonance. In this work, we propose a new scheme for resonance by solving the Dirac equation in…
We propose that the four-velocity of a Dirac particle is related to its relativistic wave function by $u^i=\bar{\psi}\gamma^i\psi/\bar{\psi}\psi$. This relativistic wave$-$particle duality relation is demonstrated for a free particle…

The Dirac wave equation for the electron soon lead to the recognition of the Zitterbewegung. This was studied both by Schrodinger and Dirac. Later there were further elegant and sometimes dissenting insights, from different authors. We…
We show that when an electron or photon propagates in a cylindrically symmetric waveguide, its spin angular momentum (SAM) and its orbital angular momentum (OAM) interact. Remarkably, we find that the dynamics resulting from this spin-orbit…
We present a theoretical study of quantum correlations between interacting photons realized through co-propagating Rydberg polaritons. We show that the spatial evolution of the $n$-photon wavefunction is governed by a multiband dispersion…
The motion of a system of particles under electromagnetic interaction is considered. Under the assumption that the force acting on an electric charge is given by the sum of the electromagnetic fields produced by any other charged particles…
In the present paper, we solve the Dirac equation in the 2+1 dimensional exponentially expanding magnetized by uniform magnetic field and non-magnetized universes, separately. Asymptotic behaviors of the solutions are determined. Using…
An explicit form of the magnetic moment tensor operator for non-Dirac particles with rest spin 1/2 and its essential difference from the spin operator are established. Possible consequences of the last fact for the description of the spin…
When quantum fields are coupled to gravitational fields, spontaneous particle creation may occur similarly to when they are coupled to external electromagnetic fields. Gravitational fields can be incorporated as background spacetime if the…
A Dirac particle is represented by a unitarily evolving state vector in a Hilbert space which factors as $H_{spin} \otimes H_{position}$. Motivated by the similarity to simple models of decoherence consisting of a two state system coupled…
A relativistic wave equation for spin 1/2 particles in the Melvin space-time, a space-time where the metric is determined by a magnectic field, is obtained. The effects of very intense magnetic fields in the energy levels, as intense as the…
The paper deals with kinematic conditions for the inverse Compton scattering of photons by relativistic electrons and the polarizations of the colliding particles, which affect the value of the differential cross section of the process. A…
Electromagnetic radiation can be emitted not only by particle charges but also by magnetic moments and higher electric and magnetic multipoles. However experimental proofs of this fundamental fact are extremely scarce. In particular, the…
