Scientific paper

The dynamics of wavepackets in a relativistic Dirac oscillator (DO) is considered. A comparison to nonrelativistic spin-orbit pendulum effect is discussed. Particular relativistic effects, like Zitterbewegung in spin motion, are found in Dirac representation. This trembling motion disappears in Foldy-Wouthuysen representation. A substantial difference between the dynamics of wavepackets corresponding to circular and linear orbits of a particle is obtained and discussed.
