There exists a class of relativistic electric-dipole matrix-element zeros which occur in (n,l,j){yields}({epsilon},l+1,j) transitions at the photon energy {omega}{sup 0}=mc{sup 2}/(l+1), independent of the potential V as well as n and Z. These zeros do have observable physical consequences, despite the fact that they occur at high energies where multipole matrix elements are important.
