Relativistic particles in orthogonal electric and magnetic fields with confining scalar potentials

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento B (1971-1996)

Summary

The motion of Klein-Gordon and Dirac particles in constant crossed electric and magnetic fields in addition to a confining scalar potential is studied in momentum space. The existence of bound states, as the electrostatic coupling is smaller than the magnetic and scalar couplings, is found.
