Dirac Oscillator in DSR: A Comparative Study of Magueijo-Smolin and Amelino-Camelia Models

Abstract

This paper investigates the energy spectrum of the Dirac oscillator within the framework of Doubly Special Relativity (DSR), focusing on two prominent models: the Magueijo--Smolin (MS) and Amelino-Camelia models. We derive the modified Dirac equations in both MS and Amelino-Camelia DSR models under the approximation of $$O(E^{2}/k^{2})$$ for a single particle and examine the resulting energy spectra. The study reveals significant corrections to the standard relativistic Dirac oscillator spectrum due to the Planck-scale deformation parameter $$k$$, which introduces distinct deviations depending on the DSR model employed. For the MS model, we observe non-uniform shifts in both positive and negative energy branches at small $$k$$, with the spectrum gradually flattening toward the canonical result as $$k$$ increases. In the Amelino-Camelia model, the energy levels show larger deviations at lower values of $$k$$, and these anomalies diminish more slowly compared to the MS model. The results provide insights into the impact of quantum gravity effects on quantum systems, with potential applications in high-precision spectroscopic or astrophysical observations at energies near the Planck scale. Furthermore, the comparative analysis of these two DSR models highlights the robustness of Planck-scale predictions and guides future experimental efforts aimed at detecting quantum-gravity signatures.
