The Lorentz Force Law and Spacetime Symmetries
Richard Shurtleff
Assume that arc length is measured with the flat spacetime metric. Then, for the most general Poincare group representation for translating 4-vectors, curves with parallel translat…
Poincare Connections in Flat Spacetime
Richard Shurtleff
In flat spacetime, as a simple 4-vector, a particle's 4-velocity cannot be changed by translation. Parallel translation then produces constant velocity, motion without force. Here…
Spin 1/2 and Invariant Coefficients II. Massless
Richard Shurtleff
A `covariant' field that transforms like a relativistic field operator is required to be a linear combination of `canonical' fields that transform like annihilation and creation op…
Massless Particle Fields, with Momentum Matrices
Richard Shurtleff
Nontrivial translation matrices occur for spin (A,B)+(C,D) with |A-C| = |B-D| = 1/2, necessarily associating a (C,D) field with a spin (A,B) field. Including translation matrices i…
