    The paper deals with the numerical solution of the nonlinear Dirac equation (NLDE) in the nonrelativistic limit regime, involving a small dimensionless parameter \(0 < \varepsilon \ll 1\), which is inversely proportional to the speed of light. The authors combine finite difference approximation with respect to the space and the Crank-Nicolson scheme for the time discretization. The scheme is analysed and a priori error estimates in terms of \(h\), \(\tau\) and \(\varepsilon\) are derived. Finally, the paper contains a list of numerical experiments investigating the experimental order of convergence in dependence on \(h\), \(\tau\) and \(\varepsilon\).
