## TL;DR

This paper studies how to approximate Dirac operators with specific types of δ-shell potentials in quantum mechanics.

## Contribution

The paper extends previous work by considering impermeable δ-shell potentials in the context of Dirac operators.

## Key findings

- Dirac operators with confining electrostatic δ-shell potentials are approximated in the norm resolvent sense.
- The support of the δ-shell potentials is impermeable to particles modeled by the Dirac operators.
