Description
Summary:This video deals with the equation of relativistic quantum mechanics. It is divided in 6 segments. The first segment introduces the quantization rules for relativistic systems and the Klein-Gordon equation. The second segment derives and discusses the Dirac equation, while the third segment explains the non relativistic limit of the Dirac equation.The fourth segment derives the Pauli equation from the Dirac equation in the presence of a magnetic field and the spin of the electron; the fifth considers the Dirac equation in a central potential and its conserved quantities, and the last segment studies the relativistic hydrogen atom by using the Dirac equation discussing its energy spectrum and the so-called fine structure corrections to the Bohr spectrum.
