A Pseudo-classical Model of a Weyl Particle and Quantization of Classical Constants

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

A problem is considered where a Weyl particle is described in (3 + 1) dimensions. In doing this, we modify the quantization procedure, taking into account the contemporary progress in the understanding of the quantization of models with degenerate coordinates (i.e., with coordinates that enter into the Lagrangian without their time derivatives). The related problem of quantization of classical constants, which is characteristic of the most of pseudo-classical models of relativistic particles, is also discussed.
