Relativistic Wave Equations and Compton Scattering

The recently proposed eight-component relativistic wave equation is applied to the scattering of a photon from a free electron (Compton scattering). It is found that in spite of the considerable difference in the structure of this equation and that of Dirac the cross section is given by the Klein-Nishina formula.

Relativistic Wave Equations and Hydrogenic Atoms

The transition probabilities for the components of both the Balmer and Lyman $α$-lines of hydrogenic atoms are calculated for the nonrelativistic Schrodinger theory, the Dirac theory and the recently developed eight-component formalism. For large $Z$ it is found that all three theories give significantly different results.
