Nucleon-anti-nucleon intruder state of Dirac equation for nucleon in deep scalar potential well

We solve the Dirac radial equation for a nucleon in a scalar Woods-Saxon potential well of depth $V_0$ and radius $r_0$. A sequence of values for the depth and radius are considered. For shallow potentials with $-1000 MeVlesssim V_0 < 0$ the wave functions for the positive-energy states $Psi _+(r)$ are dominated by their nucleon component $g(r)$. But for deeper potentials with $V_0 lesssim -1500 MeV $ the $Psi_+(r)$s begin to have dominant anti-nucleon component $f(r)$. In particular, a special intruder state enters with wave function $Psi_{1/2}(r)$ and energy $E_{1/2}$. We have considered several $r_0$ values between 2 and 8 fm. For $V_0 lesssim -2000 MeV$ and the above $r_0$ values, $Psi _{1/2}$ is the only bound positive-energy state and has its $g(r)$ closely equal to $-f(r)$, both having a narrow wave-packet shape centered around $r_0$. The $E_{1/2}$ of this state is practically independent of $V_0$ for the above $V_0$ range and obeys closely the relation $E_{1/2}=frac{hbar c}{r_0}$.
