Accurate solution of the Schr\"odinger equation with Deng-Fan potential is presented by means of Nikiforov-Uvarov method. A modified Pekeris-type approximation is proposed for the centrifugal term, from a linear combination of the $r \to 0$…
The Dirac equation is considered in the background of potentials of several types, namely scalar and vector-potentials as well as "Dirac-oscillator" potential or some of its generalisations. We investigate the radial Dirac equation within a…

We analyse a recent application of the Cornell potential with spin-spin interaction to the mass spectra of quarkonia and show that the authors have in fact used the Kratzer-Fues potential. They inadvertently converted one potential into the…
The rotation vibration spectra of small molecules can be described mathematically completely. Unfortunately, no vivid interpretation of the observed transitions exists. A qualitative interpretation attempt is undertaken for symmetric top…
We investigate the role of relativistic and nonrelativistic optical potentials used in the analysis of ($e,e'p$) data. We find that the relativistic calculations produce smaller ($e,e'p$) cross sections even in the case in which both…
We analyze recent results for a harmonic oscillator in an environment with a pointlike defect. We show that the allowed oscillator frequencies predicted by the authors stem from a misinterpretation of the exact solutions of a conditionally…
