Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau equation in Robertson-Walker space-time

  • Research Article
  • Published:
Central European Journal of Physics

Abstract

The (1+1)-dimensional Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau (DKP) equation (for spin 0 and 1) in the Robertson-Walker Space-time is solved. The exact solution is then determined for both cases. As an application, the rate of the created particles in the presence of gravity is calculated via the Bogoliubov transformations technique.
