On the genuine bound states of a non-relativistic particle in a linear finite range potential

We explore the energy spectrum of a non-relativistic particle bound in a linear finite range, attractive potential, envisaged as a quark-confining potential. The intricate transcendental eigenvalue equation is solved numerically to obtain the explicit eigen-energies. The linear potential, which resembles the triangular well, has potential significance in particle physics and exciting applications in electronics.

Eigenfunctions of the two-dimensional Moshinsky-Szczepaniak Oscillator

While the usual harmonic oscillator potential gives discrete energies in the non-relativistic case, it does not however give genuine bound states in the relativistic case if the potential is treated in the usual way. In the present article, we have obtained the eigenfunctions of the Dirac oscillator in two spatial dimensions, adapting the prescription of Moshinsky.

Spectroscopic investigation of spin zero homonuclear and heteronuclear molecules

In the present article, we introduce a model to investigate the energy spectrum of a relativistic rotor by considering the Klein-Gordon Hamiltonian. Rotational spectral lines are a signature of homonuclear and heteronuclear systems and play a key role in understanding diatomic molecules. We show that the energy-correction term arising due to unequal masses influences the line separation. Determining the rotational constant enables one to calculate the moment of inertia and bond length of the molecule.

Klein paradox for bound states - A puzzling phenomenon

While Klein paradox is often encountered in the context of scattering of relativistic particles at a potential barrier, we presently discuss a puzzling situation that arises with the Klein-Gordon equation for bound states. With the usual minimal coupling procedure of introducing the interaction potential, a paradoxical situation arises when the 'hill' becomes a 'well', simulating a bound-state like situation. The phenomenal phenomenon for bound states is contrary to the conventional wisdom of quantum mechanics and is analogous to the well-known Klein paradox, a generic property of relativistic wave equations.
