The concept of a particle is ambiguous in quantum field theory. It is generally agreed that particles depend not only on spacetime, but also on coordinates used to parametrise spacetime points. One of us has in contrast proposed a…

We study decays of a spin $1$ boson within the formalism of Hagen-Hurley equations. Such particle can decay into two spin $\frac{1}{2}$ particles, a Weyl neutrino and a massive fermion, whose spins can couple to $S=0$ or $S=1$. Since spin…
