Spin and electron structure

Abstract: The recent literature shows a renewed interest, with various independent approaches, in the classical theories for spin. Considering the possible interest of those results, at least for the electron case, we purpose in this paper to explore their physical and mathematical meaning, by the natural and powerful language of Clifford algebras (which, incidentally, will allow us to unify those different approaches). In such theories, the ordinary electron is in general associated to the mean motion of a point-like "… Show more

“…The explicit calculations performed by us for the known Barut-Zanghi model [13] did really lead in the CMF of the electron to closed periodical motions. The total motion of the system will be helical around the p-direction.…”

“…The non-hermitian part is strictly related to the socalled zitterbewegung (zbw), [12,13] which is the spin motion, or "internal" motion -since it is observed in the CMF,-expected to exist for spinning particles. Such a motion of #1 Let us recall that, with regard to the vectorial basis σ 1 , σ 2 , σ 3 of the Pauli multivector algebra, we have by definition: ∇ ≡ σ i ∇ i , indicating by ∇ i the i-th component of vector ∇.…”
