Abstract
In this paper, we define twisted higher spin Dirac operators and explain how these invariant differential operators can be used to define more general higher spin Dirac operators acting on functions \(f({\underline{x}})\) on \(\mathbb{R }^m\) which then take values in general half-integer representations for the spin group.
