Description
In this volume, the authors extend the calculus of finite differences to Dirac's equation. They obtain solutions for particles with negative
mass that are completely equivalent to the solutions with positive mass. In addition, they obtain solutions for nuclear distances of
the order of 10
-13m and less rather than for the usual atomic distances. They report a number of other deviations from the
differential theory, for instance they found a slight deviation in the eigenvalues of an electron in a Coulomb field, similar to the
Lamb shift. In two sections some surprising results are shown for the concept of space caused by the replacement of
dx by delta
x.
