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

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

Famous quotes containing the word classical:

“The basic difference between classical music and jazz is that in the former the music is always greater than its performance—Beethoven’s Violin Concerto, for instance, is always greater than its performance—whereas the way jazz is performed is always more important than what is being performed.”
—André Previn (b. 1929)
