Homework Statement
In section Coulomb Potential stated that: "You can easily verify that the other terms mentioned below vanish if ##p = p' = o##"
which we are working in nonrelativistic limit
Relevant Equations
$$\bar u(p') \gamma^i u(p)$$
$$\bar u(p') \gamma^i u(p) = u^\dagger(p') \gamma^0 \gamma^i u(p)$$
if ##p = p'## we can use
$$u^\dagger(p) u(p) = 2m \xi^\dagger \xi$$
but how can we conclude the statement?

What is ##u(p)## when ##\vec{p}=0## ?
