abstract

The present paper analyses the Einstein-Cartan theory of gravitation with Elko spinors as sources of curvature and torsion. After minimally coupling the Elko spinors to torsion, the spin angular momentum tensor is derived and its structure is discussed. It shows a much richer structure than the Dirac analogue and hence it is demonstrated that spin one half particles do not necessarily yield only an axial vector torsion component. Moreover, it is argued that the presence of Elko spinors partially solves the problem of minimally coupling Maxwell fields to Einstein-Cartan theory.

  • Wigner multiplets in QFT: dark sector and CPT-violating scenarios hep-ph · 2025-02-13 · reject · none · ref 11 · internal anchor

    The paper builds a local QFT for two-fold Wigner-degenerate spin-1/2 doublets and claims generic interactions violate CPT, but a standard diagonal CPT operator restores the symmetry for its own example.
