- | <note tip> | + | The Klein-Gordon equation describes how the state of a relativistic (= fast moving) quantum system without spin changes in time. |
- | Explanations in this section should contain no formulas, but instead colloquial things like you would hear them during a coffee break or at a cocktail party. | + | |
- | </note> | + | The analogous equation for systems with half-integer spin is the [[equations:dirac_equation|]]. |
+ | |||
+ | If the system only moves slowly, the Klein-Gordon equation becomes the [[equations:schroedinger_equation]]. | ||
