The Hilbert space of states of the relativistic Majorana particle consists of normalizable bispinors with real components, and the usual momentum operator $- i abla$ can not be defined in this space. For this reason, we introduce the axial momentum operator, $ - i gamma_5 abla$ as a new observable for this particle. In the Heisenberg picture, the axial momentum contains a component which oscillates with the amplitude proportional to $m/E$, where $E$ is the energy and $m$ the mass of the particle. The presence of the oscillations discriminates between the massive and massless Majorana particle. We show how the eigenvectors of the axial momentum, called the axial plane waves, can be used as a basis for obtaining the general solution of the evolution equation, also in the case of free Majorana field. Here a novel feature is a coupling of modes with the opposite momenta, again present only in the case of massive particle or field.

This article is a pedagogical introduction to relativistic quantum mechanics of the free Majorana particle. This relatively simple theory differs from the well-known quantum mechanics of the Dirac particle in several important aspects. We present its
three equivalent formulations. Next, so called axial momentum observable is introduced, and general solution of the Dirac equation is discussed in terms of eigenfunctions of that operator. Pertinent irreducible representations of the Poincare group are discussed. Finally, we show that in the case of massless Majorana particle the quantum mechanics can be reformulated as a spinorial gauge theory.
We discuss the structure of the Dirac equation and how the nilpotent and the Majorana operators arise naturally in this context. This provides a link between Kauffmans work on discrete physics, iterants and Majorana Fermions and the work on nilpotent
structures and the Dirac equation of Peter Rowlands. We give an expression in split quaternions for the Majorana Dirac equation in one dimension of time and three dimensions of space. Majorana discovered a version of the Dirac equation that can be expressed entirely over the real numbers. This led him to speculate that the solutions to his version of the Dirac equation would correspond to particles that are their own anti-particles. It is the purpose of this paper to examine the structure of this Majorana-Dirac Equation, and to find basic solutions to it by using the nilpotent technique. We succeed in this aim and describe our results.
Motivated by the emerging possibilities to study threshold pion electroproduction at large momentum transfers at Jefferson Laboratory following the 12 GeV upgrade, we provide a short theory summary and an estimate of the nucleon axial form factor for
large virtualities in the $Q^2 = 1-10~text{GeV}^2$ range using next-to-leading order light-cone sum rules.
Covariant density functional theory, in the framework of self-consistent Relativistic Mean Field (RMF) and Relativistic Random Phase approximation (RPA), is for the first time applied to axially deformed nuclei. The fully self-consistent RMF+RRPA equ
ations are posed for the case of axial symmetry and non-linear energy functionals, and solved with the help of a new parallel code. Formal properties of RPA theory are studied and special care is taken in order to validate the proper decoupling of spurious modes and their influence on the physical response. Sample applications to the magnetic and electric dipole transitions in $^{20}$Ne are presented and analyzed.
We derive a power series representation of an arbitrary electromagnetic field near some axis through the coaxial field components on the axis. The obtained equations are compared with Fourier-Bessel series approach and verified by several examples. I
t is shown that for each azimuthal mode we need only two real functions on the axis in order to describe the field in a source free region near to it. The representation of dipole mode in a superconducting radio-frequency gun is analyzed.
