Dirac Equation in Kerr Geometry
نویسنده
چکیده
We are familiar with Dirac equation in flat space by which we can investigate the behaviour of half-integral spin particle. With the introduction of general relativistic effects the form of the Dirac equation will be modified. For the cases of different background geometry like Kerr, Schwarzschild etc. the corresponding form of the Dirac equation as well as the solution will be different. In 1972, Teukolsky wrote the Dirac equation in Kerr geometry. Chandrasekhar separated it into radial and angular parts in 1976. Later Chakrabarti solved the angular equation in 1984. In 1999 Mukhopadhyay and Chakrabarti have solved the radial Dirac equation in Kerr geometry in a spatially complete manner. In this review we will discuss these developments systematically and present some solutions.

In this paper we consider normalizable time-periodic solutions of the Dirac equation in an extreme Kerr black hole background with massM and angular momentum J .

In this paper we consider bound state solutions, i.e., normalizable time-periodic solutions of the Dirac equation in the exterior region of an extreme Kerr black hole with mass M and angular momentum J .

— Chandrasekhar separated the Dirac equation for spinning and massive particles in Kerr geometry into radial and angular parts. In the present review, we present solutions of the complete wave equation and discuss how the Dirac wave scatters off Kerr black holes. The eigenfunctions, eigenvalues and reflection and transmission coefficients are computed for different Kerr parameters. We compare t...
متن کاملNon-Existence of Time-Periodic Solutions of the Dirac Equation in an Axisymmetric Black Hole Geometry
We prove that, in the non-extreme Kerr-Newman black hole geometry, the Dirac equation has no normalizable, time-periodic solutions. A key tool is Chandrasekhar’s separation of the Dirac equation in this geometry. A similar non-existence theorem is established in a more general class of stationary, axisymmetric metrics in which the Dirac equation is known to be separable. These results indicate ...
متن کاملKerr geometry beyond the Quantum theory
Dirac electron theory and QED do not take into account gravitational field, while the corresponding Kerr-Newman solution with parameters of electron has very strong stringy, topological and non-local action on the Compton distances, polarizing space-time and deforming the Coulomb field. We discuss the relation of the electron to the Kerr’s microgeon model and argue that the Kerr geometry may be...
