Abstract

In previous two articles we postulated that field equations for arbitrary spin and helicity are Casimir eigenvalue equations. In massive case, from such principle equation, we derived spin-00 Klein-Gordon, spin-12\frac{1}{2} Dirac and spin-11 vector equations. In the present article we will derived spin-32\frac{3}{2} Rarita-Schwinger equation, which is nontrivial combination of vector and spinor case. We will also show that vector-spinor field contains two spin-12\frac{1}{2} Dirac fields.
