Algebra of Physical Space - Classical Spinor

Classical Spinor

The differential equation of the Lorentz rotor that is consistent with the Lorentz force is

$\frac{d \Lambda}{ d \tau} = \frac{e}{2mc} F \Lambda,$

such that the proper velocity is calculated as the Lorentz transformation of the proper velocity at rest

$u = \Lambda \Lambda^\dagger,$

which can be integrated to find the space-time trajectory with the additional use of

$\frac{d x}{ d \tau} = u$

Tomb inscription, appearing in classical paintings by Guercino and Poussin, among others. The words probably mean that even the most ideal earthly lives are mortal. Arcadia, a mountainous region in the central Peloponnese, Greece, was the rustic abode of Pan, depicted in literature and art as a land of innocence and ease, and was the title of Sir Philip Sidney’s pastoral romance (1590)
