A picture is worth a thousand words But a correct equation probably more…
Dirac equation is a relativistic wave equation describes all spin-1/2 massive particles such as electrons and quarks for which parity is a symmetry. It is consistent with both the principles of quantum mechanics and the theory of special relativity, and was the first theory to account fully for special relativity in the context of quantum mechanics.
