We compare two different solutions of the Dirac equation in (1+1) dimensions. One solution is for a fermion in the presence of an electric potential and the other is for a fermion in the presence of a pseudoscalar potential. It is shown…
In a previous paper we introduced two linear spinor equations equivalent to the Lorentz Force and stated that these equations were fairly general and could be applied to any force field compatible with Special Relativity. In this paper, via…

We have obtained nonperturbative one-loop expressions for the mean energy-momentum tensor and current density of Dirac's field on a constant electric-like background. One of the goals of this calculation is to give a consistent description…
Processes occurring in the strong-field regime of QED are characterized by background electromagnetic fields of the order of the critical field $F_{cr}=m^2c^3/\hbar|e|$ in the rest frame of participating charges. It has been conjectured…
One method for deriving a factorization for QCD processes is to use successive integration over fields in the functional integral. In this approach, we separate the fields into two categories: dynamical fields with momenta above a relevant…
Within the scope of a static cylindrically symmetric space-time we study the behavior of a nonlinear spinor field that depends on time and radial coordinates. It is found that the presence of nontrivial non-diagonal components of the…
