A simple real-space model for the electron wavefunction is suggested, based on a transverse wave with helicity, rotating at mc^2/h. The mapping of the real two-dimensional vector phasor to the complex plane permits this to satisfy the…
In a previous work we showed that spin can be envisioned as living in a phase space that is dual to the standard phase space of position and momentum. In this work we demonstrate that the second class constraints inherent in this "Dual…
We employ the modification of the basic Penrose formula in twistor theory, which allows to introduce commuting composite space-time coordinates. It appears that in the course of such modification the internal symmetry SU(2) of two-twistor…

We propose the model of massive spinning particle traveling in four-dimensional Minkowski space. The equations of motion of the particle follow from the fact that all the classical paths of the particle lie on a cylinder whose position in…
We consider the motion of spinning test particles with nonzero rest mass in the "pole-dipole" approximation, as described by the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon (MPD) equations, and examine its properties in dependence on the spin supplementary…
This paper studies the two-component spinor form of massive spin-3/2 potentials in conformally flat Einstein four-manifolds. Following earlier work in the literature, a non-vanishing cosmological constant makes it necessary to introduce a…
We consider firstly simple D=4 superalgebra with six real tensorial central charges $Z_{\mu\nu}$, and discuss its possible realizations in massive and massless cases. Massless case is dynamically realized by generalized Ferber-Shirafuji…
