Abstract

A recent article (Villaroel D 1998 Eur. J. Phys. 19 85-92) discussed the solution of the Dirac equation for the potential in momentum space by direct analogy with the non-relativistic case. Here I point out that this procedure is incorrect and that a careful analysis of the boundary conditions at r = R is required even in momentum space.
