Description

Full text: The Dirac equation for an electron in an external electromagnetic field is studied as a system of linear equations for the vector potential. A family of solutions for the vector potential are presented, that are equivalent in accordance with a set of consistency conditions on the wave function. This is shown to generalise to space times of diverse dimensions, with both c- and a- number wavefunctions
