Supersymmetric patterns in the pseudospin, spin, and Coulomb limits of the Dirac equation with scalar and vector potentials
Description
We show that the Dirac equation in (3+1) dimensions gives rise to supersymmetric patterns when the scalar and vector potentials are (i) Coulombic with arbitrary strengths or (ii) when their sum or difference is a constant, leading to relativistic pseudospin and spin symmetries. The conserved quantities and the common intertwining relation responsible for such patterns are discussed
