From Relativistic Mechanics towards Relativistic Statistical Mechanics

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Till now, kinetic theory and statistical mechanics of either free or interacting point particles were well defined only in non-relativistic inertial frames in the absence of the long-range inertial forces present in accelerated frames.

On Bohmian Mechanics, Particle Creation, and Relativistic Space-Time: Happy 100th Birthday, David Bohm! [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
The biggest and most lasting among David Bohm’s (1917–1992) many achievements is to have proposed a picture of reality that explains the empirical rules of quantum mechanics. This picture, known as pilot wave theory or Bohmian mechanics among

Obtaining the non-relativistic quantum mechanics from quantum field theory: issues, folklores and facts [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2018
Given the classical dynamics of a non-relativistic particle in terms of a Hamiltonian or an action, it is relatively straightforward to obtain the non-relativistic quantum mechanics (NRQM) of the system.

Relativistic Mechanics of Constant Curvature [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Sciences, 2020
We consider an inverse variational problem for the lines of constant curvature in (pseudo-)Euclidean two-, three-, and four-dimensional spaces. The accumulated results are physically meaningful in the case of relativistic mechanics of particles.

Position and spin in relativistic quantum mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review A, 2020
The problem of the position and spin in relativistic quantum mechanics is analyzed in detail. It is definitively shown that the position and spin operators in the Foldy-Wouthuysen representation (but not in the Dirac one) are quantum-mechanical ...

Observation of interaction-induced phenomena of relativistic quantum mechanics

open access: yesCommunications Physics, 2021
Relativistic quantum mechanics has been developed for nearly a century to characterize the high-energy physics in quantum domain, and various intriguing phenomena without low-energy counterparts have been revealed.

Making relativistic quantum mechanics simple

open access: yesEuropean journal of physics, 2021
The fundamentals of a quasi-relativistic wave equation, whose solutions match the Schrödinger results for slow-moving particles but are also valid when the particle moves at relativistic speeds, are discussed.

Considerations Concerning the Little Group

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
I very briefly review both the historical and constructive approaches to relativistic quantum mechanics and relativistic quantum field theory, including remarks on the possibility of a non-vanishing photon mass, as well as a foolhardy speculation ...
