A many-electron Hamiltonian using one-electron Dirac operators and instantaneous Coulomb interactions, usually in the no-pair approximation.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
The many-electron Dirac–Coulomb model retains pairwise Coulomb interaction.
The source supplies a substantive formal ingredient, dynamical sector, law, field content, or mechanism of the target theoretical framework.

The Dirac–Coulomb Hamiltonian uses Dirac one-electron dynamics for each electron.
The source supplies a substantive formal ingredient, dynamical sector, law, field content, or mechanism of the target theoretical framework.

The Dirac–Coulomb Hamiltonian is an effective bound-state reduction of QED and is not the full field theory.
The target retains the degrees of freedom and interactions relevant below a stated scale or within a stated regime, while higher-energy or unresolved degrees of freedom from the source are integrated out, coarse-grained, or encoded in effective couplings.
