| dc.description | The momentum of a free massive particle, invariant under translation, thereby realizes a trivial representation of the translation group. By allowing nontrivial reps of translations, momentum changes with translation, a recipe for force. Here the procedure is applied to the conventional construction of a free quantum field using spacetime symmetries, yielding a more general field with the free field as a special case. It is shown that a particle described by the quantum field follows the classical trajectories of a massive charged particle in electromagnetic and gravitational fields. | |
