I Introduction
The impact of the gravitational field on the dynamics of quantum mechanical systems is of wide interest. On the one hand, Einstein’s theory of general relativity (GR)(key-56, ) gives a convincing explanation of gravity as a geometric characteristic of space-time. It proves, in particular, that the classical gravitational field is a manifestation of space-time curvature. It has predicted the existence of gravitational waves (key-57, ) and black holes (key-58, ) for example.Quantum mechanics (QM) is the framework for understanding the behavior of particles on a tiny scale (key-59, ). It is a very effective theory (usually quantum field theory) in describing how small particles interact and how three of nature’s four fundamental forces emerge: weak, strong, and electromagnetic interactions (key-60, ). However, attempts to develop a unified theory that can reconcile general relativity with quantum mechanics, i.e. a theory of quantum gravity, have hit various roadblocks and technical challenges that have yet to be overcome (key-6, ; key-7, ) .
One basic method for establishing a broad picture of how the gravitational field affects relativistic particles at the quantum level is to generalize aspects of the relativistic dynamics of particles in flat Minkowski space to an arbitrary curved background geometry(key-8, ; key-9, ). As a result, the approach can be adapted to deal with different models in which the concept of curvature appears, incorporating more predictions on the values of macroscopic observables that are required to make relevant experimental verification of certain phenomenological consequences, particularly in astrophysics and cosmology.Furthermore, comprehending the thermodynamic behavior of relativistic particles where gravitational effects must be considered (key-10, ; key-11, ; key-12, ), as well as analyzing the associated features, i.e., the fundamental statistical quantities, would provide the possibility of obtaining useful and essential results in the context of describing the quantum behavior of gravity.
Topological defects (domain walls, cosmic strings, monopoles, and textures) have been extensively researched over the last few decades and continue to be one of the most active disciplines in condensed matter physics, cosmology, astrophysics, and elementary particle models. It is thought that these structures arose as a result of the Kibble mechanism (key-68, ). (key-14, ; key-15, ), where the defects emerge during the cooling of the early universe in symmetry-breaking phase transitions (key-16, ; key-17, ). The particular fault in question is cosmic strings (for additional information, see (key-73, )). These items (whether static or revolving) can have discernible impacts. They, for example, offer a potential technique for seeding galaxy formation and gravitational lensing effects.Furthermore, by investigating cosmic strings and their characteristics, we may learn a lot about particle physics at very high energies in many settings. Furthermore, the potential that cosmic strings may act like superconducting wires has been proposed in current physics, with fascinating implications.
The harmonic oscillator (HO) has long been recognized as an important instrument in many branches of theoretical physics (key-19, ). It is a well-studied perfectly solvable model that may be used to examine different difficult issues using quantum mechanics (key-74, ). Furthermore, the relativistic extension of the quantum harmonic oscillator gives a useful model for understanding a wide range of molecular, atomic, and nuclear interactions. Indeed, when working with such a model, the property of having a complete set of precise analytical solutions can give rise to radically different interpretations of many mathematical and physical events, and hence related applications can be obtained via the underlying formulation.
The behavior of various relativistic quantum systems is critically dependent on the Dirac oscillator (DO). As Itô et al. (key-75, ) indicated in previous advances of spin-1/2 particle dynamics with a linear trajectory. They demonstrated that the system’s non-relativistic limit yields an ordinary harmonic oscillator with a large spin-orbit coupling term. Actually, Moshinsky and Szczepaniak (key-76, ) found that the above-mentioned DO could be derived from the free Dirac equation by introducing an external linear potential through a minimum replacement of the momentum operator .It is worth noting that, in addition to the theoretical focus on researching the DO, substantial insights may be achieved by examining physical interpretation, which is undoubtedly important in comprehending many pertinent applications.
Inspired by DO, a similar formalism for the case of bosonic particles was developed, and it was dubbed a Klein-Gordon oscillator (KGO) (key-23, ; key-24, ). Several writers have lately been working on the covariant version of this model in curved space-times and other configurations. Numerous contributions have been made to the subject of relativistic quantum motions of scalar and vector particles under gravitational effects produced by various curved space-time geometries; for example, Ref. (key-79, ) studies the problem of the interaction between KGO coupled harmonically with topological defects in Kaluza-Klein theory. Ref. (key-80, ) investigates the relativistic quantum dynamics of spin-0 particles in a spinning cosmic string space-time with Coulomb-type scalar and vector potentials. Furthermore, rotating effects on the scalar field in cosmic string space-time, space-time with space-like dislocation, and space-time with spiral dislocation have been examined in Ref. (key-81, ). Recently, the authors of Ref. (key-28, ) examined the KGO in a cosmic string space-time and investigated the effects of the rotating frame and non-commutativity in momentum space. Furthermore, in Ref. (key-82, ), the KGO was exposed to a magnetic quantum flux in the presence of a Cornell-type scalar and Coulomb-type vector potentials in a spinning cosmic string space-time.
Attempts to investigate the relativistic spin-0, spin-1 bosons and spin-1/2 fermions wave functions and their time evolution have been pursued by various authors (key-30, ; key-31, ; key-32, ) making use of the Hamiltonian form i.e, having Schrodinger-type equations. The so-called Feshbach-Villars (FV) equations (key-33, ) are of particular interest in this respect. These equations were initially constructed in the purpose of permitting a relativistic single particle interpretation of the second-order KG equation. For the later case, FV equations originate from splitting the KG wave function into two components in order to obtain an equation with first order time derivative. In recent decades, a number of papers have been produced with the aim of exploring the relativistic dynamical properties of single particles and solving their wave equations by adopting the FV scheme (e.g,Refs.(key-34, ; key-35, ; key-36, ; key-37, ; key-38, ; key-39, ; key-40, ) and other related references cited therein),Bouzenada et al (key-41, ) investigate the Feshbach-Villars oscillator (FVO) case in spinning cosmic string space-time and discuss some findings ( thermal properties and density of this systhem).
This paper investigates the effect of a Coulomb-type potential on the Klein-Gordon oscillator. Several publications(key-42, ; key-43, ; key-44, ; key-45, ; key-46, ) have recently considered the confinement of a relativistic scalar particle to a Coulomb potential. The approach for inserting a scalar potential into the Klein-Gordon equation is as follows, as explained in Ref. (key-45, ). The electromagnetic 4-vector potential is introduced in the same way.This is accomplished by altering the momentum operator as follows:. Another technique was provided in Ref. (key-46, ) by changing the mass term to: , where denotes the scalar potential.This change in the mass term has been studied in recent decades, for example, by examining the behavior of a Dirac particle in the presence of a static scalar potential and a Coulomb potential (key-46, ) and a relativistic scalar particle in cosmic string spacetime (key-47, ). We study the effect of a Coulomb-type potential on the Klein-Gordon oscillator in this work by introducing the scalar potential as a modification to the mass component in the Klein-Gordon equation.We obtain bound state solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation for both attractive and repulsive Coulomb-type potentials and demonstrate a quantum effect characterized by the angular frequency of the Klein-Gordon oscillator being dependent on the quantum numbers of the system, implying that not all angular frequency values are allowed.
This paper is organized as follows. In the next section, we derive the FV equations for scalar bosons in Mikowski and static Cosmic string space-time, taking both the free and interaction cases into account. We present the KG oscillator in Hamiltonian form, then solve the resulting equations to get the eigenstates and energy levels. Section 3 extends the preceding equations by considering the geometry of the cosmic dislocation space-time; the same technique as Section 2 is applied in this section. Section 4 investigates the Feshbach-Villars oscillator and the quantification of the energy system based on these variables,we are using Frobenius method. Section 5 contains our conclusions.We shall always use natural units throughout the article, and our metric convention is .
II The FV Representation of Feshbach-Villars (Spin-0) in Minkowski Space-time
II.1 An Overview of the Feshbach-Villars Approximation
This section discusses the relativistic quantum description of a spin-0 particle propagating in Minkowski space-time using the metric tensor .The usual covariant KG equation for a scalar massive particle with mass is (key-48, ; key-49, )
[TABLE]
The minimally-coupled covariant derivative is denoted by . The classical four momentum is , while the electromagnetic four potential is . The magnitude of the particle charge is given by e.
It is worth noting at this point that (1) may be expressed in Hamiltonian form with the time first derivative, i.e. as a Schrödinger-type equation.
[TABLE]
The Hamiltonian may be defined using the FV linearization process, which involves converting 1 to a first order in time differential equation. The two component wave function (key-46, ) is introduced. (key-50, ),
[TABLE]
Here, obeys the KG wave equation, and is defined in such a way that
[TABLE]
The aforementioned transformation (3) involves inserting wave functions that meet the requirements.
[TABLE]
It is more convenient to write for our subsequent review,
[TABLE]
Eq. (1) becomes equivalent
[TABLE]
The addition and subtraction of these two equations yields a system of first order coupled differential equations
[TABLE]
The FV Hamiltonian of a scalar particle in the presence of electromagnetic interaction may be expressed using Eqs. (8) as
[TABLE]
where are the conventional Pauli matrices given by
[TABLE]
It’s worth noting that the Hamiltonian (9) meets the generalized hermicity requirement (If there is an invertible, Hermitian, linear operator such that , the Hamiltonian is said to be pseudo-Hermitian. (key-51, )).
[TABLE]
The one dimensional FV Hamiltonian reduces to for free particle propagation, i.e., no interaction is assumed left .
[TABLE]
The solutions to the time-independent free Hamiltonian are simply stationary states. Assuming the solution (key-36, ),
[TABLE]
with E denoting the system’s energy. As a result, Eq. (2) may be represented as
[TABLE]
This is the one-dimensional FV equation of the free relativistic spin-0 particle, and it is performed in order to have an alternate Schrödinger-type to KG equation. In what follows, the aforesaid approach will be utilized to determine the dislocation solutions to wave equations in curved space-time.
III The FV Representation of Spin-0 Particle in Cosmic Dislocation Space-time
The goal of this part is to investigate the KGO in the backdrop geometry of a cosmic string using the FV technique. It is widely known that the generally covariant relativistic wave equations of a scalar particle in a Riemannian space-time characterized by the metric tensor may be found by reformulating the KG equation so that( see, e.g, the textbooks(key-8, ; key-9, ) )
[TABLE]
where is the Laplace-Beltrami operator denoted by
[TABLE]
denotes a real dimensionless coupling constant, and R is the Ricci scalar curvature given by , where is the Ricci curvature tensor. The inverse metric tensor is , and .
We would now want to investigate the quantum dynamics of spin-0 particles in the space-time caused by a (3+1)-dimensional dislocation, as well as develop the relevant FV formulation.
III.1 Feshbach-Villars oscillator in the cosmic dislocation space-time
Before we study the KGO in the Hamiltonian representation, let us first derive the KG wave equation for the free relativistic scalar particle propagating in the cosmic string space-time that is assumed to be static and cylindrically symmetric.
In this part, we will discuss the topological defect that serves as the foundation for our study. Inspired by the description of an edge dislocation in crystalline solids, we build a generalization of this topological defect in gravity. We can observe that an edge dislocation is a spiral dislocation, which is a deformation of a circle into a spiral (key-52, ). The line element describing the space-time backdrop with this topological defect is (using the units ) (key-53, ; key-54, ; key-55, )
[TABLE]
where is a constant value relating to the defect’s distortion. By , the parameter is also connected to the Burgers vector . Here , , , ,and : is the angular parameter that defines the angular deficit , which is connected to the string’s linear mass density mu by (It should be noted that this metric provides an accurate solution to Einstein’s field equations for , and that by setting , it represents a flat conical outer space with angle deficit ).
When the metric and inverse metric tensor components are, respectively,
[TABLE]
It is worth noting that the topic of spinless heavy particles in the geometry formed by a cosmic dislocation background has been studied in a number of studies (for example,(key-56, ; key-57, )).
To obtain the FV form of the KG wave equation in curved manifolds, we will use the approach provided in references (key-58, ; key-59, ). The generalized Feshbach-Villars transformation is used (GFVT) An identical transformation for characterizing both large and massless particles was presented earlier in Ref.(key-60, ). The components of the wave function in the GFVT are provided by (key-58, ).
[TABLE]
where is an arbitrary nonzero real parameter and is specified, with
[TABLE]
The anti-commutator is denoted by the curly bracket in Eq. (20). The Hamiltonian for the aforementioned transformation is
[TABLE]
with
[TABLE]
where
[TABLE]
Here and everywhere . We see that the initial FV transformations are fulfilled for .
Now, using the metric 25, it is simple to see that , implying that space-time is locally flat (no local gravity), and so the coupling component is vanishing. The condition is known as minimum coupling. However, in massless theory, equals 1/6. (in 4 dimensions). The equations of motion are then conformally invariant in this later instance.
A simple computation yields and we then obtain
[TABLE]
Using these techniques to obtain the Hamiltonian 21, one may suppose a solution of the type we want cylindrically symmetric, i.e. solutions with rotational symmetry in the (x,y)-plane, due to the temporal and angular independence in the metric 25.
[TABLE]
where are the eigenvalues of the -component of the angular momentum operator. The KG equation 15 may be written equivalently to the following two coupled equations
[TABLE]
The sum and difference of the two previous equations yields a second order differential equation for the field . As a result, the radial equation is as follows:
[TABLE]
where we have set
[TABLE]
We can observe that Eq. (27) is a Bessel equation and its general solution is defined by (key-61, )
[TABLE]
where and are the Bessel functions of order and of the first and the second kind, respectivement. Here and are arbitrary constants. We notice that at the origin when , the function . However, is always divergent at the origin. In this case, we will consider only when . Hence, we write the solution to Eq. (27) as follows
[TABLE]
We can now express the whole two-component wavefunction of the spinless heavy KG particle in the space-time of a cosmic dislocation using this solution.
[TABLE]
The constant can be obtained by applying the appropriate normalization condition to the KG equation (e.g., see Ref.(key-62, ; key-63, )), but it is fortunate that failing to determine the normalization constants throughout this manuscript has no effect on the final results.
Now we’ll look at the specific instance where we wish to extend the GFVT for the KGO. In general, we must substitute the momentum operator in Eq. (15). As a result, Eq. (30) may be rewritten as follows.
[TABLE]
Similarly, the following differential equation may be obtained using a simple calculation based on the approach described above.
[TABLE]
with
[TABLE]
The KGO for a spin-0 particle in the space-time of a static cosmic string is given by Eq. (33). To derive the solution to this problem, we first suggest a radial coordinate transformation.
[TABLE]
subsitutuing the expression for into Eq. (33), we obtain
[TABLE]
So, if we look at the asymptotic behavior of the wave function at the origin and infinity, and we’re looking for regular solutions, we may assume a solution of the type
[TABLE]
As previously, we can plug this back into Eq. (36), and we get
[TABLE]
This is the confluent hypergeometric equation (key-64, ), the solutions to which are defined in terms of the kind of confluent hypergeometric function.
[TABLE]
We should note that the solution (39) must be a polynomial function of degree . However, taking imposes a divergence issue. We can have a finite polynomial only if the factor of the last term in Eq. (38) is a negative integer, meaning,
[TABLE]
With this result and the parameters (34), we may derive the quantized energy spectrum of KGO in the cosmic dislocation space-time, and hence,
[TABLE]
We may notice that the energy relies clearly on the angular deficit . In other words, because to the presence of the wedge angle, the curvature of space-time that is impacted by the topological defect, i.e., the cosmic string, would affect the relativistic dynamics of the scalar particle by creating a gravitational field.
The corresponding wave function is given by
[TABLE]
Thereafter, the general eigenfunctions are written as
[TABLE]
where is the normalization constant.
III.2 In the cosmic dislocation space-time, the Feshbach-Villars oscillator
Coulomb-Type Potentials
In this part, we will look at the KGO in the context of a cosmic dislocation. The equations of motion of a scalar particle can be obtained by examining the GFVT, as in the instance examined in Sec.LABEL:sec:3. Numerous writers investigated the quantum dynamics of relativistic particles in the space-time of a cosmicdislocation, and a variety of models were addressed. Mazur, for example, explored the quantum mechanical features of heavy (or massless) particles in the gravitational field of a spinning cosmic dislocation in a prior publication (key-65, ). He demonstrated that energy should be quantized when the string has non-zero rotational momentum.Subsequently, Gerbert and Jackiw (key-66, ) showed solutions to the KG and Dirac equations in the (2+1)-dimensional space-time produced by a large point particle with arbitrary angular momentum. The vacuum expectation value of the stress-energy tensor for a massless scalar field conformally related to gravity was explored in Ref. (key-67, ). The authors of (key-66, ) investigated the behavior of a quantum test particle meeting the Klein-Gordon equation in a spinning cosmic string’s space-time.
Additionally, it was demonstrated in Ref. (key-68, ) that the extrema of the field’s energy for specified angular and linear momenta may be defined as spinning cosmic string solutions of scalar field theory with a cylindrically symmetric energy density. Furthermore, in Ref. (key-69, ), topological and geometrical phases owing to the gravitational field of a cosmic string with mass and angular momentum were explored.
The gravitational effects of rotating cosmic strings have recently piqued the curiosity of researchers studying the dynamics and characteristics of relativistic quantum particles. Vacuum fluctuations for a massless scalar field surrounding a spinning cosmic string, for example, were examined using a renormalization approach in Ref. (key-70, ). Similarly, in Ref. (key-71, ), the vacuum polarization of a scalar field in the gravitational backdrop of a spinning cosmic thread was examined. Additionally, the authors of Ref. (key-72, ) used a completely relativistic technique to investigate the Landau levels of a spinless heavy particle in the spacetime of a spinning cosmic string.
Wang et al. (key-73, ) studied the KGO linked to a homogeneous magnetic field in the backdrop of a revolving cosmic string. In addition, Ref.(key-74, ) addressed the problem of a spinless relativistic particle subjected to a uniform magnetic field in the spinning cosmic string space-time. Furthermore, in Ref. (key-75, ), the relativistic quantum dynamics of a KG scalar field exposed to a Cornell potential in spinning cosmic string space-time were reported. In addition, in Ref. (key-76, ), the relativistic scalar charged particle in a spinning cosmic string space-time with Cornell-type potential and Aharonov-Bohm effect was studied.
The topic examined in Sec. LABEL:sec:3 is extended to a more generic space-time with non-zero angular momentum in the following discussion. In this paper, we investigate a heavy, relativistic spin-0 particle whose wave-function is represented by Psi and satisfies the KG equation 15 in the space-time caused by a (3+1)-dimensional stationary cosmic dislocation described in Coulomb-Type Potentials.
[TABLE]
where
[TABLE]
After simple algebraic manipulations we arrive at the following second order differential equation for the radial function
[TABLE]
By simplifying the relationship between Whitakar and confluent hypergeometric function(key-61, ), yields
[TABLE]
where
[TABLE]
We should note that the solution must be a polynomial function of degree . However, taking imposes a divergence issue. We can have a finite polynomial only if the factor of the last term in Eq. is a negative integer, meaning,
[TABLE]
With this result and the parameters (34), we may derive the quantized energy spectrum of KGO in the cosmic dislocation space-time, and hence,
[TABLE]
where is an integration constant. The complete eigenstates are given by
[TABLE]
From now on we proceed to study the Feshbach–Villars Oscillator in a rotating cosmic string space-time . Firstly, we start by considering a scalar quantum particle embedded in the background gravitational field of the space-time described by the metric (42). In this way, we shall introduce a replacement of the momentum operator where in Eq. (57). Then, we have
[TABLE]
Based on the prior studies, we will apply the GFVT to the case of KGO in the relevant space using the same techniques as previously. Inserting Eqs. (52) and (45) into the Hamiltonian (56), then assuming the solution (48), yields two linked differential equations comparable to Eq.(56), but with different values of .
Manipulating exactly the same steps before, we obtain the following radial equation
[TABLE]
where we have defined
[TABLE]
Let us now conside , and therefore rewrite the radial equation ((53)) as follows ():
[TABLE]
where we have defined a new parameter
[TABLE]
Let us look at the asymptotic behavior of the solutions to Eq. ((55)), which are found for and. The behavior of the potential solutions to Eq. ((55)) at and allows us to define the function in terms of an unknown function as follows from Refs. [44-46]:
[TABLE]
Hence, by plugging the radial wave function from Eq. (11) into Eq. (9), we get
[TABLE]
The Heun biconfluent equation [44, 48-50] relates to the second order differential equation ((58)), and the function is the Heun biconfluent function.
[TABLE]
To continue our discussion of bound state solutions, let us employ the Frobenius method(key-81, ; key-84, ). As a result, the solution to Equation ((59)) may be expressed as a power series expansion around the origin:
[TABLE]
We find the following recurrence connection by substituting the series ((60)) into ((59)):
[TABLE]
where and . We may determine the additional coefficients of the power series expansion by starting with and applying the relation ((60)). ((58)). As an example,
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
The wave function must be normalizable, as is widely known in quantum theory. As a result, we suppose that the function disappears at and . This indicates that we have a finite wave function everywhere, which means that there is no divergence of the wave function at and thus bound state solutions may be produced.
In Eq (58), we have, however, expressed the function as a power series expansion around the origin (64). By demanding that the power series expansion (60) or the Heun biconfluent series becomes a polynomial of degree , bound state solutions can be obtained. As a result, we ensure that behaves as at the origin and disappears at(key-77, ; key-78, ) . We can see from the recurrence relation (63) that by applying two constraints (key-76, ; key-77, ; key-78, ; key-79, ; key-80, ; key-81, ; key-82, ; key-83, ), the power series expansion (60) becomes a polynomial of degree :
[TABLE]
where From the condition , we can obtain:
[TABLE]
The corresponding wave function is given by
[TABLE]
the final expression of the wave-function of the spinless FVO propagating in the dislocation cosmic background can be represented as
[TABLE]
where the parameters and are defined in Eq.(54).
IV Conclusion
The goal of this work is to investigate the relativistic dynamics of spinless quantum particles using the Feshbach-Villars representation of two models, namely the interaction of KGO with the gravitational field created by the background geometry of: a) cosmic dislocation and b) cosmic dislocation with Coulomb-Type Potential. We generated the equivalent formulations in two distinct curved manifolds by modifying the FV formulation of scalar fields in Minkowski space-time.
We obtained the exact solutions of both systems and we presented the quantized energy spectra which depend on the parameters that characterize the space-time topology.
It is not surprising that the wave-functions of our quantum system are expressed in terms of the confluent hypergeometric functions for the free Feshbach-Villars equation in cosmic dilocation space-time, because the former can be described throughout the latter by using the appropriate coordinate transformation.
It is worth noting that the Feshbach-Villars oscillator has been presented under Coulomb-type potential. Nevertheless, as explained in Ref. (key-46, ), the electromagnetic 4-vector potential may be introduced using the same technique by altering the momentum operator as . New and fascinating results linked with the Feshbach-Villars oscillator can be achieved by dealing with a Coulomb-type potential via a minimum coupling. Moreover, the wave-functions of our quantum system are represented in terms of the Biconfluent Heun functions. In this section, we solve the differential equation using the power series approach.
