It is proposed that the paradox of wave-particle duality in quantum mechanics may be resolved using a physical picture analogous to magnetic domains. Within this picture, a quantum particle represents a coherent region of a quantum wave…

In the hadrodynamics (QHD) there are two methods to take account of the contribution of negative-energy states in the relativistic random phase approximation (RRPA). Dawson and Furnstahl made the ansatz that the Dirac sea were empty, while…

We consider the signatures of a domain wall produced in the spontaneous symmetry breaking involving a dilaton-like scalar field coupled to electromagnetism. Domains on either side of the wall exhibit slight differences in their respective…

One of the fundamental predictions of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) is the spontaneous creation of particle--antiparticle pairs from vacuum in presence of a very strong electric field. Under these extreme conditions a strongly bound state…

The Dirac theory implies the existence of an internal vector space, in addition to spin space. Using Dirac's coupling of variables in internal space to those in physical space, we construct a new configuration structure for particles in the…

A quantum Dirac field theory with no divergences of vacuum energy is presented. The vacuum energy divergence is eliminated by removing a extra degree of freedom of the Dirac fields. The conditions for removing the extra degree of freedom,…

We construct lattices with alternating kinks and anti-kinks. The lattice is shown to be stable in certain models. We consider the forces between kinks and antikinks and find that the lattice dynamics is that of a Toda lattice. Such lattices…

In easy-plane ferromagnets, we show that the interplay between a domain wall and a spin wave packet can be formulated as the collision of two massive particles with a gravity-like attraction. In the presence of magnetic dissipation, the…
