New approach for charged fermion particles coupled to homogeneous magnetic fields

  • 1. Department of Physics, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand

Description

A spin-(3/2) particle minimally coupled to a constant homogeneous magnetic field is considered for the demonstration of a new and improved method of obtaining the characteristic equation for its energy eigenvalues. The method is also used for the case of a spin-(1/2) particle with added anomalous-magnetic-moment coupling, where its advantages are more apparent in the context of a simpler example
