Are all forces due to spin-curvature coupling?

Все ли силы обусловлены связью спина с кривизной?

Summary

Starting from the Dirac equation for a particle in a gravitational field and an arbitrary gauge field, we derive the Heisenberg and classical equations of motion. The force term is a generalization of the Lorentz force. It may be interpreted as the interaction between a generalized spin and the curvature of a fiber bundle.

Riassunto

Partendo dall'equazione di Dirac per una particella in un campo gravitazionale e in un campo di gauge arbitrario, si derivano le equazioni di moto classiche e di Heisenberg. Il termine di forza è una generalizzazione della forza di Lorentz. Si può interpretare come l'interazione tra uno spin generalizzato e la curvatura di un fascio di fibre.

Резюме

Исходя из уравнения Дирака для частицы в гравитационном поле и произвольном калибровочном поле, мы выводим классические уравнения движения и уравнения Гайзенберга. Силовой член представляет обобщение силы Лоренца. Поличенный результат можно интерпретировать, как взаимодействие между обобщенным спином и кривизной семейства нитей.
