Abstract

In this paper, we give two spinor wave equations of free electromagnetic field, corresponding to the reducibility and irreducibility representations D 10+D 01 and D 10 of the proper Lorentz group, which are the differential equations of space-time one order. The spinor equations are covariant and are equivalent to Maxwell equations.
