A nomenclature for inertial frames and a notation for space and time coordinates is proposed to give an unambigous description of space-time experiments in special relativity. Of particular importance are the concepts of `base' and…

An earlier scheme [arXiv:2404.03360], where torsion plays an essential part in a flat spacetime account of fermion spin, is extended to spacetimes with non-zero Riemann curvature. It is found that further essential features of the fermion,…

The bundles suitable for a description of higher-spin fields can be built in terms of a 2-spinor bundle as the basic `building block'. This allows a clear, direct view of geometric constructions aimed at a theory of such fields on a curved…
