Abstract:
We consider several classes of symmetries of the Dirac Hamiltonian in 3 + 1 dimensions, with axially deformed scalar and vector potentials. The symmetries include the known pseudospin and spin limits and additional symmetries which occur when the potentials depend on different variables. Supersymmetries are observed within each class and the corresponding charges are identified.
