On The Probability Density of Spinless Particles.

H. Hashamipour, M. H. Barati, M. J. Kazemi

In this paper, we shall derive a new conserved current for Klein-Gordon equation. The first component of this current is non-negative and reduces to $|\phi|^2$ in the non-relativistic limit. Therefore, it can be interpreted as a suitable probability density for spinless particles. In addition, this current is time-like and so prevents faster than light particle propagation. We will see the probability density has a considerable deviation from $|\phi|^2$ providing the uncertainty in momentum is much greater than $m_0c$.
