A Clifford Bundle Approach to the Wave Equation of a Spin 1/2 Fermion in the de Sitter Manifold
W. A. Rodrigues, S. A. Wainer, M. Rivera-Tapia +2
In this paper we give a Clifford bundle motivated approach to the wave equation of a free spin fermion in the de Sitter manifold, a brane with topology $M=\mathrm{S0}(4,1)/\m…
Locally Inertial Reference Frames in Lorentzian and Riemann-Cartan Spacetimes
J. F. T. Giglio, W. A. Rodrigues
In this paper we scrutinize the concept of locally inertial reference frames (LIRF) in Lorentzian and Riemann-Cartan spacetime structures. We present rigorous mathematical definiti…
Superluminal Neutrinos from OPERA Experiment and Weyl Equation
E. Capelas de Oliveira, W. A. Rodrigues, J. Vaz
By analyzing the structure of the Weyl spinor field in the Clifford bundle formalism we show that in each spinorial frame it is represented by F\insec(\doublebarwedge^0 T^\starM +…
Equivalence Principle and the Principle of Local Lorentz Invariance
W. A. Rodrigues, M. Sharif
In this paper we scrutinize the so called Principle of Local Lorentz Invariance (\emph{PLLI}) that many authors claim to follow from the Equivalence Principle. Using rigourous math…
