Abstract
The Dirac equation is one of the fundamental equations in physics. Here we
present and discuss two novel solutions of the free particle Dirac equation.
These solutions have an exact analytical form in terms of Airy or Mathieu
functions and exhibit unexpected properties including an enhanced Doppler
effect, accelerating wavefronts and solutions with a degree of localization.
