The nonrelativistic limit of a dynamical proper time

Нерелятивистский пр едел дюиамического с обственного времени

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

Summary

In this paper we evaluate the quantum-relativistic proper time, associated in a wave-packet formalism with the Dirac and Klein-Gordon scattered particles. Taking the nonrelativistic limit of the obtained proper time, we find that this limit may be interpreted as expressing an invariant interaction time shift.

Riassunto

In questo articolo si efettua la valutazione del tempo proprio relativistico quantistico associate in un formalismo di pacchetto d’onde alle particelle « disperse » di Dirac e di Klein-Gordon. Prendendo il limite non relativistico del tempo proprio ottenuto, si trova che si pu`o interpretare questo limite come l’espressione di uno spostamento temporale invariante dell’interazione.

Although the interpretation of these authors concerning the space-time « quantization » are essentially correct, we must however consider that a consistent space-time « quantization » cannot be performed—as we have seen—without achieving a « dynamical » space-time description (at least in the proposed manner).
