Unfolding Physics from the Algebraic Classification of Spinor Fields
arXiv:1212.2406 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2012.12.026
Abstract
After reviewing the Lounesto spinor field classification, according to the bilinear covariants associated to a spinor field, we call attention and unravel some prominent features involving unexpected properties about spinor fields under such classification. In particular, we pithily focus on the new aspects --- as well as current concrete possibilities. They mainly arise when we deal with some non-standard spinor fields concerning, in particular, their applications in physics.
