Abstract.
We deal with consistent first order non-relativistic corrections (i.e. in the small parameter , where c is the speed of light) of the Dirac–Maxwell system. We discuss a selfconsistent modeling of the Pauli equation as the O(ɛ) approximation of the Dirac equation. We suggest a coupling to the “magnetostatic”O(ɛ) approximation of the Maxwell equations consisting of Poisson equations for the four components of the potential. We sketch the semiclassical/nonrelativistic limits of this model.
