British theoretical physicist Paul Dirac was one of the most significant figures in the early days of quantum physics, who along with Erwin Schrödinger won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1933. But it ...

It might be possible to probe a close analogue of zitterbewegung by recreating the mathematics of Dirac's equation in a quantum wire. Dirac's equation has an infinite number of solutions with negative ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We investigate the convergence properties of a three-dimensional quantum lattice Boltzmann scheme for the Dirac equation. These schemes were ...

Quantum field theory marries the ideas of other quantum theories to depict all particles as “excitations” that arise in underlying fields. The British physicist Paul Dirac started the ball rolling in ...

It is shown in the first part how the basic formalism of the theory of spin-orbit coupling in the band theory of crystals can be deduced at once from the Dirac equation without the usual ambiguities ...

The internet is stuffed with online quizzes and surveys, ranging from which "Friends" character you are to who you're about to vote for. But the BBC recently asked something more profound of its ...
