Abstract
We begin showing that for even dimensional vector spaces all automorphisms of their Clifford algebras are inner. So all orthogonal transformations of are restrictions to of inner automorphisms of the algebra. Thus under orthogonal transformations and - space and time reversal - all algebra elements, including vectors and spinors , transform as and for some algebra element . We show that while under combined spinor remain in its spinor space, under or separately goes to a 'different' spinor space and may have opposite chirality. We conclude with a preliminary characterization of inner automorphisms with respect to their property to change, or not, spinor spaces.
