A variant for the superspin one-half massive superparticle in $ 4D $, $ \mathcal{N}=1 $, based on Dirac superfields, is offered. As opposed to the current known models that use spinor chiral superfields, the propagating fields of the…
In the N=1 supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, neutralinos associated in supermultiplets with the neutral electroweak gauge and Higgs bosons are, as well as gluinos, Majorana fermions. They can be paired with the Majorana…
It is shown that Weyl spinors in 4D Minkowski space are composed of primary fields of half-integer conformal weights. This yields representations of fermionic 2-point functions in terms of correlators of primary fields with a factorized…
Let M be a closed oriented 4-manifold, with Riemannian metric g, and a spin^C structure induced by an almost-complex structure \omega. Each connection A on the determinant line bundle induces a unique connection \nabla^A, and Dirac operator…
We ask the question whether neutrino physics with momentum space Majorana spinors, the eigenvectors of the particle--antiparticle conjugation operator, C=i\gamma_2 K (with K standing for complex conjugation), is different but physics with…
Grassmann-valued Dirac fields together with the electromagnetic field (the pseudoclassical basis of QED) are reformulated on spacelike hypersurfaces in Minkowski spacetime and then restricted to Wigner hyperplanes to get their description…
Real Clifford algebras for arbitrary number of space and time dimensions as well as their representations in terms of spinors are reviewed and discussed. The Clifford algebras are classified in terms of isomorphic matrix algebras of real,…
In this paper, we determine the bound-state solutions for Dirac fermions with electric dipole moment (EDM) and position-dependent mass (PDM) in the presence of a radial magnetic field generated by magnetic monopoles. To achieve this, we…
Bearing in mind the Lounesto spinor classification, we connect the expansion coefficients of well behaved fermionic quantum field, i.e., a local field within a full Lorentz covariant theory, with and only with a given subclass of Type-2…
We apply the supersymmetric model of \'E. Cartan to the pseudoscalar meson decay into two photons, $\pi_0\to\gamma\gamma$, $\eta\to\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta'\to\gamma\gamma$. In the book of \'E. Cartan published in 1966, Dirac spinors…
The issue of general covariance of spinors and related objects is reconsidered. Given an oriented manifold $M$, to each spin structure $\sigma$ and Riemannian metric $g$ there is associated a space $S_{\sigma, g}$ of spinor fields on $M$…
Unification ideas motivate the formulation of field equations on an extended spin space. Demanding that the Poincare symmetry be maintained, one derives scalar symmetries that are associated with flavor and gauge groups. Boson and fermion…
We consider a Dirac equation set on an extended spin space that contains fermion and boson solutions. At given dimension, it determines the scalar symmetries. The standard field equations can be equivalently written in terms of such degrees…
In this work we analyze the zero mode localization and resonances of $1/2-$spin fermions in co-dimension one Randall-Sundrum braneworld scenarios. We consider delta-like, domain walls and deformed domain walls membranes. Beyond the…
In large networks of Dirac spinors individual spinors show space-time properties relative to quasi-classical clusters of spinors. Three forms of relations between spinors and such clusters are identified. These constitute three families of…
When utilizing a cluster decomposible relativistic scattering formalism, it is most convenient that the covariant field equations take on a linear form with respect to the energy and momentum dispersion on the fields in the manner given by…
The quantum field operator for spin-half Elko describes a massive self-interacting fermionic dark matter candidate of mass dimension one. It has been shown that the theory has a built-in violation of the Lorentz symmetry and a well-defined…
We perform an exotic dualization of the Ramond-Ramond fields in type II double field theory, in which they are encoded in a Majorana-Weyl spinor of O(D,D). Starting from a first-order master action, the dual theory in terms of a…

This work is a continuation of our recent study of non-relativistic charged particles, confined to a sphere enclosing a magnetic dipole at its center. In this sequel, we extend our computations in two significant ways. The first is to a…
