There are a number of papers dedicated to the description of free particles and antiparticles with zero mass and spin 1/2. A great many equations with different C, P, T properties have been proposed and the impression could be formed that…
The original version of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) paradox and the Klein paradox of Klein-Gordon (KG) equation are discussed to show the necessity of existence of antiparticle with its wavefunction being fixed unambiguously. No concept…
Are neutrinos their own antiparticles? We explain why they very well might be. Then, after highlighting the fact that, to determine experimentally whether they are or not, one must overcome the smallness of neutrino masses, we discuss the…
We explain the relationship between Majorana neutrinos, which are their own antiparticles, and Majorana neutrino masses. We point out that Majorana masses would make the neutrinos very distinctive particles, and explain why many theorists…
We investigate the possibility of negative mass particles and whether physics as we know it today allows or excludes their existence and what properties they might have in the light these laws. We show that nothing prohibit their existence,…
In this article the concept of mass is analyzed based on the special and general relativity theories and particle (quantum) physics. The mass of a particle (m=E(0)/c^2) is determined by the minimum (rest) energy to create that particle…
According to the Received View identical quantum particles are a previously unknown kind of objects that do not possess individuality. In this Chapter we discuss this view, criticize it, and propose an alternative. According to this…
We review the concept of chirality and charge for particles and antiparticles. We point out that the commonly accepted equivalence of particles and antiparticles - with difference only in the opposite signs of their charges, which follows…
In previous papers quant-ph/0206077, quant-ph/0206078, quant-ph/0206079 we have shown that there exist three types of the relativistic equations for the massless particles. Here we show that for the free particles and antiparticles with the…
Unsufficiency of conditions for the formation of interference in monoparticle "which path" experiments is proven. The version of corpuscular interpretation of diffraction pattern based on the action discreteness is presented, which makes…
In this paper we consider classical point particles in full interaction with an arbitrary number of dynamical scalar and (abelian) vector fields. It is shown that the requirement of stability ---vanishing self-force--- is sufficient to…
Based on experimental discovery that the mass-square of neutrino is negative, a quantum equation for superluminal neutrino is proposed in comparison with Dirac equation and Dirac equation with imaginary mass. A virtual particle may also be…
Motivated by the difference between SLD's recent measurement of ALR and the corresponding LEP results, we explore which kinds of new particles can (1) contribute dominantly to new physics through oblique corrections, (2) produce negative…
Assuming that one neutrino type with definite mass is described by a massive Dirac field operator, it is shown that the physical one-particle states for particles and antiparticles can be rotated to each other, irrespective of their…
We consider a body in a parallel flow of non-interacting particles. One can imagine that the flow is highly rarefied or consists of light rays. The interaction of particles with the body is perfectly elastic. We introduce the notions of a…
According to classical physics particles are basic building blocks of the world. Classical particles are distinguishable objects, individuated by physical characteristics. By contrast, in quantum mechanics the standard view is that…
We present an ontological argument why elementary particles with nonzero spin must be massless. This argument implies that, from an ontological perspective, the massive quarks and leptons of the standard model cannot be elementary…
We have shown quant-ph/0206104 (Lett. Nuovo Cimento, 1972, 4, 344) that for free particles and antiparticles with mass m>0 and arbitrary spin s>0, in the framework of the Poincare group P(1,3), there exist three types of nonequivalent…
We propose a test based on direct detection data that allows to determine if the dark matter particle is different from its antiparticle. The test requires the precise measurement of the dark matter spin-independent direct detection cross…
An overview is given of various dark matter candidates. Among the many suggestions given in the literature, axions, inert Higgs doublet, sterile neutrinos, supersymmetric particles and Kaluza-Klein particles are discussed. The situation has…
