Spinors in extended Minkowski space (2310.14794v1)

Published 12 Oct 2023 in physics.gen-ph

Abstract: The exterior algebra of Minkowski space naturally has the structure of a sixteen-dimensional Clifford algebra representation, and so can be used as the space of spinors. We examine plane, circular, and spherical solutions to the free Dirac equation in this extended notion of Minkowski space, and indicate how they can be used to obtain solutions to the standard four-dimensional Dirac equation.
