New symmetry properties of pointlike scalar and Dirac particles

Open access
Silenko, Alexander J.·2015·Physical Review D

Abstract

New symmetry properties are found for pointlike scalar and Dirac particles (Higgs boson and all leptons) in Riemannian and Riemann-Cartan spacetimes in the presence of electromagnetic interactions. A Hermitian form of the Klein-Gordon equation for a pointlike scalar particle in an arbitrary $n$-dimensional Riemannian (or Riemann-Cartan) spacetime is obtained. New conformal symmetries of initial and Hermitian forms of this equation are ascertained. In the above spacetime, general Hamiltonians in the generalized Feshbach-Villars and Foldy-Wouthuysen representations are derived. The conformal-like transformation conserving these Hamiltonians is found. Corresponding conformal symmetries of a Dirac particle are determined. It is proven that all conformal symmetries remain unchanged by an inclusion of electromagnetic interactions.

  • The presented equations perfectly agree with corresponding classical equations describing the momentum and spin dynamics, and the agreement also takes place for a spin-1 particle with MDM and EDM.

    “The presented equations perfectly agree with corresponding classical equations describing the momentum and spin dynamics [12,90]. The agreement takes also place for a spin-1 particle with MDM and EDM [12,32].”

    From <i>Zitterbewegung</i> of massless particles (2022) · cites this paper as [32]

    The Introduction (p. 2) says the Foldy–Wouthuysen representation is useful for finding a classical limit, but does not report agreement between momentum and spin-dynamics equations. The Summary (p. 12) addresses symmetry properties of spin-0 and spin-1/2 particles, not the claimed spin-1 result. Searches for classical momentum and spin dynamics and for a spin-1 particle with MDM and EDM found no passage addressing either claimed agreement. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
