 <tabbox Intuitive>
+The Dirac equation describes how the state of a relativistic (= fast moving) quantum system with half-integer spin changes in time.
+The analogous equation for systems without spin is the [[equations:klein-gordon_equation|Klein-Gordon equation]].
+If the system only moves slowly, the Dirac equation becomes the [[equations:pauli_equation|Pauli equation]].
