Conformal symmetry, chiral fermions and semiclassical approximation

Abstract
The explicit form of conformal generators is found which provides the extension of Poincare symmetry for massless particles of arbitrary helicity. The helicity 1/2 particles are considered as the particular example. The realization of conformal symmetry in the semiclassical regime of Weyl equation is obtained.
