Covariant observer-dependent Hamiltonian formalism for the relativistic particle
We show that it is possible to formulate the canonical Hamiltonian formalism for the relativistic particle, in a covariant fashion and without some well-known problems, when we introduce the concept of a reference system to establish the notions of time and space. Starting from the observer-dependen...

| Sumario: | We show that it is possible to formulate the canonical Hamiltonian formalism for the relativistic particle, in a covariant fashion and without some well-known problems, when we introduce the concept of a reference system to establish the notions of time and space. Starting from the observer-dependent Hamiltonian formalism, we obtain the result that the wave function describing the quantum behavior of the particle must be observer dependent and we give the corresponding wave equation. © 1987 The American Physical Society. |
