Relativistic Effects in Quantum Mechanics
Research gap analysis derived from 2 physics papers in our local library.
The gap
The extension of relativistic effects to multi-electron systems and ultra-relativistic plasma regimes is unexplored.
Consensus across the literature
Papers collectively establish the need for further research on relativistic effects but leave open their application to complex systems and extreme conditions.
Research trend
Emerging — attention growing, methods still coalescing.
