Klein-Gordon field is often used to study the dynamics of elementary particles. The Klein–Gordon equation was first considered as a quantum wave equation by Schrödinger in his search for an equation describing de Broglie waves. The equation was found in his notebooks from late 1925, and he appears to have prepared a manuscript applying it to the hydrogen atom. Yet, because it fails to take into account the electron's spin, the equation failed to predict the fine structure of the hydrogen atom, and overestimated the overall magnitude of the splitting pattern energy. This paper will describe in detail using the Direct Method of Calculus Variation as an alternative to solve the Klien-Gordon field equations. The Direct Method simplified the calculation because the variables are calculated and expressed in functional form of energy. The result of the calculation of Klien-Gordon Feld provided the existence of the minimizer, i.e.  with  and . Explicit form of the minimizer was calculated by the Ritz method through rows of convergent density

Whenever we consider any relativistic quantum wave equation we are confronted with the Klein paradox, which asserts that incident particles will suffer a surplus of reflection when dispersed by a discontinuous potential. Following recent results on the Dirac equation, we propose a solution to this paradox for the Klein-Gordon case by introducing virtual beams in a natural well-posed generalization of the method of images in the theory of partial differential equations. Thus, our solution considers a global reflection coefficient obtained from the two contributions, the reflected particles plus the incident virtual particles. Despite its simplicity, this method allows a reasonable understanding of the paradox within the context of the quantum relativistic theory of particles (according to the original setup for the Klein paradox) and without resorting to any quantum field theoretic issues.

AbstractIn this paper we study existence and orbital stability for solitary waves of the nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation. The energy of these solutions travels as a localized packet, hence they are a particular type of solitons. In particular we are interested in sufficient conditions on the potential for the existence of solitons. Our proof is based on the study of the ratio energy/charge of a function, which turns out to be a useful approach for many field equations.

Generalized field equations of linear gravity are formulated on the basis of octons. When compared to the other eight-component noncommutative hypercomplex number systems, it is demonstrated that associative octons with scalar, pseudoscalar, pseudovector and vector values present a convenient and capable tool to describe the Maxwell–Proca-like field equations of gravitoelectromagnetism in a compact and simple way. Introducing massive graviton and gravitomagnetic monopole terms, the generalized gravitational wave equation and Klein–Gordon equation for linear gravity are also developed.

The author has previously derived an energy-momentum relationship applicable in a hydrogen atom. Since this relationship is taken as a departure point, there is a similarity with the Dirac’s relativistic wave equation, but an equation more profound than the Dirac equation is derived. When determining the coefficients  and β of the Dirac equation, Dirac assumed that the equation satisfies the Klein-Gordon equation. The Klein-Gordon equation is an equation which quantizes Einstein's energy-momentum relationship. This paper derives an equation similar to the Klein-Gordon equation by quantizing the relationship between energy and momentum of the electron in a hydrogen atom. By looking to the Dirac equation, it is predicted that there is a relativistic wave equation which satisfies that equation, and its coefficients are determined. With the Dirac equation it is necessary to insert a term for potential energy into the equation when describing the state of the electron in a hydrogen atom. However, in this paper, a potential energy term is not introduced into the relativistic wave equation. Instead, potential energy is incorporated into the equation by changing the coefficient  of the Dirac equation.

We improve the previous study of the Klein–Gordon equation in a noncommutative space–time as applied to the hydrogen atom to extract the energy levels, by considering the second-order corrections in the noncommutativity parameter. Phenomenologically we show that noncommutativity is the source of Lamb shift corrections.

It is well known that many of the field equations from theoretical physics (e.g. Einstein field equations, Maxwell's equations, Klein-Gordon equation) can be obtained from a variational principle with a suitably chosen Lagrange density. In the case of the Einstein equations the corresponding Lagrangian is degenerate (i.e., the associated Euler-Lagrange equations are of second order whereas in general these would be of fourth order), while in the cases of the Maxwell and Klein-Gordon equations the Lagrangian usually used is not degenerate.
