On gravitational interaction of fermions
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss some aspects of the gravitational interaction of the relativistic quantum particles with spin 1/2. The exact Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation is constructed for the Dirac particle coupled to the static spacetime metric. The quasirelativistic limit of the theory is then analyzed. Using the analogous method, we obtain the exact Cini-Touschek transformation and discuss the ultra-relativistic limit of the fermion theory. We show that the Foldy-Wouthuysen transformation is not uniquely defined, and the corresponding ambiguity is deeply rooted in the relativistic quantum theory.

Is the Gravitational Force Elementary?
The gravitational force is assumed to be mediated by spin 2 gravitons which are composed of four spin 1/2 (sub-) fermions. The dynamics is governed by a nonlinear spinorfield equation with nonperturbative Pauli-Villars regularization and canonical quantization. On the quantum level the fermion dynamics is expressed by a functional equation for algebraic state functionals, and the "graviton" (fu...

متن کاملGalaxy Dynamics Predictions in the Nonsymmetric Gravitational Theory
In the weak field approximation, the nonsymmetric gravitational theory (NGT) has, in addition to the Newtonian gravitational potential, a Yukawalike potential produced by the exchange of a spin 1+ boson between fermions. If the range r0 = μ −1 is 25 kpc, then this additional potential due to the interaction with matter in the halos of galaxies can explain the flat rotation curves of galaxies an...
متن کاملA Study of Fermions Coupled to Gauge and Gravitational Fields on a Cylinder
Fermions on a cylinder coupled to gravity and gauge fields are examined by studying the geometric action associated with the symmetries of such a system. The gauge coupling constant is shown to be constrained and the effect of gravity on the masses is discussed. Furthermore, we introduce a new gravitational theory which couples to the fermions by promoting the coadjoint vector of the diffeomorp...
