    Dirac equation in the magnetic-solenoid field

    We consider the Dirac equation in the magnetic-solenoid field (the field of a solenoid and a collinear uniform magnetic field). For the case of Aharonov-Bohm solenoid, we construct self-adjoint extensions of the Dirac Hamiltonian using von Neumann's theory of deficiency indices. We find self-adjoint extensions of the Dirac Hamiltonian in both above dimensions and boundary conditions at the AB solenoid. Besides, for the first time, solutions of the Dirac equation in the magnetic-solenoid field with a finite radius solenoid were found. We study the structure of these solutions and their dependence on the behavior of the magnetic field inside the solenoid. Then we exploit the latter solutions to specify boundary conditions for the magnetic-solenoid field with Aharonov-Bohm solenoid.Comment: 23 pages, 2 figures, LaTex fil

    Self-adjoint extensions and spectral analysis in the generalized Kratzer problem

    We present a mathematically rigorous quantum-mechanical treatment of a one-dimensional nonrelativistic motion of a particle in the potential field V(x)=g1x−1+g2x−2V(x)=g_{1}x^{-1}+g_{2}x^{-2}. For g2>0g_{2}>0 and g1<0g_{1}<0, the potential is known as the Kratzer potential and is usually used to describe molecular energy and structure, interactions between different molecules, and interactions between non-bonded atoms. We construct all self-adjoint Schrodinger operators with the potential V(x)V(x) and represent rigorous solutions of the corresponding spectral problems. Solving the first part of the problem, we use a method of specifying s.a. extensions by (asymptotic) s.a. boundary conditions. Solving spectral problems, we follow the Krein's method of guiding functionals. This work is a continuation of our previous works devoted to Coulomb, Calogero, and Aharonov-Bohm potentials.Comment: 31 pages, 1 figur
