Is there a known particle field equation of a similar form (Γnπn)2Ψ=(mc)2Ψ
such that by reducing the number of degrees of freedom for the spinor Ψ into a spinor of lesser degrees of freedom, such as a scalar ψ0, two three-vectors ψ± or two two-vectors ϕ±, it reduces Eq. 1 into either ...
- a spin zero field equation πnπnψ0=(mc)2ψ0,
- a spin one field equation (Iπ0±iπ×)(Iπ0∓iπ×)ψ±=(mc)2ψ±
- or a spin 1/2 field equation (Iπ0±σ⋅π)(Iπ0∓σ⋅π)ϕ±=(mc)2ϕ±?
In these expressions πn is the four-component momentum operator which includes the electromagnetic four-potential interaction An with the particle's charge q written as πn=iℏ∂n−qAn,
and π=−iℏ∇−qA
uses bold to indicate a euclidean vector, specific to 3-components. The three two-by-two matrices σ in Eq. 4 are the Pauli Spin Matrices.
