Abstract

The Klein-Gordon-Fock (KGF) theory with scalar and vector potentials is presented as a one particle relativistic quantum mechanics (QM). First, the KGF equation is written in a Hamiltonian form, in spinor space; unlike the Feshbach-Villars approach, the Hamiltonian here is strictly Hermitian. Then this equation is rewritten for a one-component wave function. Expressions for the Hamiltonian and other observables' operators acting in the space of one-component wave functions are presented. The nonrelativistic and ultrarelativistic limits of these expressions are considered. A general solution to the KGF equation describing a free particle is presented.
