Summary
It is shown that it is possible to formulate the phenomenological description of elementary particles in a way which allows the existence of particles of the spins 0, 1/2 and 1 only. This restriction appears as a consequence of the fact that space-time is 4-dimensional.
Riassunto
Si dimostra che è possibile formulare una descrizione fenomenologica delle particelle elementari che consente l’esistenza di sole particelle con spin 0, 1/2 ed 1. Questa restrizione consegue dal fatto che lo spazio è quadridimensionale.
