The elastic scattering observables for 400 MeV [pi][sup [plus minus]] on [sup 28]Si are calculated using a relativistic impulse approximation Kemmer-Duffin-Petiau formalism to calculate the [pi][sup [plus minus]] nucleus optical potential, and the Kemmer-Duffin-Petiau wave equation of motion with the aforementioned potential. The results are compared with recent experiments and with the results of nonrelativistic impulse approximation treatments.
