We prove essential self-adjointness of Dirac operators with Lorentz scalar potentials which grow sufficiently fast near $\partial\Omega$, for a bounded spatial domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^d$. On the way, we first consider general symmetric first order differential systems, for which we identify a new, large class of potentials, called scalar potentials, ensuring essential self-adjointness. Furthermore, using the supersymmetric structure of the Dirac operator in the two dimensional case, we…
