Geometric Foundation of Spin and Isospin
Abstract
Description
Various theories of spinning particles are interpreted as realizing elements of an underlying geometric theory. Classical particles are described by trajectories on the Poincare group. Upon quantization an eleven-dimensional Kaluza-Klein type theory is obtained which incorporates spin and isospin in a local SL(2,C) x U(1) x SU(2) theory with broken U(1)x SU(2) part.
