By means of this theorem the operator is constructed which governs the hidden symmetry in relativistic Coulomb problem (Dirac equation). It is proved that this operator coincides with the familiar Johnson-Lippmann one and is intimately connected to the famous Laplace-Runge-Lenz (LRL) vector. Our derivation is very simple and informative. It does not require a longtime and tedious calculations, as is offten underlined in most papers.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-07-28T09:36:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "relativistic quantum mechanics", "hidden symmetry", "dirac electron", "dirac equation", "manifestations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 690168, "adsabs": "2005quant.ph..7257K" } } }
