J-matrix method of scattering in one dimension: The relativistic theory

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

We make a relativistic extension of the one-dimensional J-matrix method of scattering. The relativistic potential matrix is a combination of vector, scalar, and pseudo-scalar components. These are non-singular short-range potential functions (not necessarily analytic) such that they are well represented by their matrix elements in a finite subset of a square integrable basis set that supports a tridiagonal symmetric matrix representation for the free Dirac operator. Transmission and reflection coefficients are calculated for different potential coupling modes. This is the first of a two-paper sequence where we develop the theory in this part then follow it with applications in the second.
