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

    Several classical sayings that one likes to repeat had quite a different meaning from the ones later times attributed to them.
