We postulate the second-order derivative equation with four parameters for spin-1/2 fermions possessing two mass states. For some choice of parameters fermions propagate with the superluminal speed. Thus, the novel tachyonic equation is suggested. The relativistic 20-component first-order wave equation is formulated and projection operators extracting states with definite energy and spin projections are obtained. The Lagrangian formulation of the first-order equation is presented and the electric current and energy-momentum tensor are found. The minimal and non-minimal electromagnetic interactions of fermions are considered and Schr\"{o}dinger's form of the equation and the quantum-mechanical Hamiltonian are obtained. The canonical quantization of the field in the first-order formalism is performed and we find the vacuum expectation of chronological pairing of operators.

We postulate the second-order derivative equation with four parameters for spin-1/2 fermions possessing two mass states. For some choice of parameters fermions propagate with the superluminal speed. Thus, the novel tachyonic equation is suggested. The relativistic 20-component first-order wave equation is formulated and projection operators extracting states with definite energy and spin projections are obtained. The Lagrangian formulation of the first-order equation is presented and the electric current and energy-momentum tensor are found. The minimal and non-minimal electromagnetic interactions of fermions are considered and Schr\"{o}dinger's form of the equation and the quantum-mechanical Hamiltonian are obtained. The canonical quantization of the field in the first-order formalism is performed and we find the vacuum expectation of chronological pairing of operators.

Let us introduce, following the method of [ref] (see also [ref] ) the system of first order equations equivalences to Eq.(2) [equation] We define the 16-component wave function [equation] so that $Ψ_0(x)=ψ(x)$, $Ψ_i(x)=(1/m)∂_iψ(x)$.

The first-order relativistic wave equation with minimal and non-minimal interactions reads (see also [ref] for a case $b=0$, $M_0=0$) [equation] where $P_0=ε^0,0⊗I_4$, $P_1=ε^μ,μ⊗I_4$ are the projection operators so that the relations $P_0^2=P_0$, $P_1^2=P_1$, $P_0+P_1=1$ hold.

To obtain the projection matrix extracting solutions to Eq.(24), we use the minimal equation for the matrix $p̌=p_μΓ_μ$ (see Appendix A): [equation] With the help of the method of the work [ref] , one obtains from Eq.(28) the projection matrices [equation] that obey equations [equation] [equation] The operator of the spin projections on the direction of the momentum $p$ is given by [ref] [equation] where $|p| =√(p_1^2 +p_2^2+p_3^2)$, and obeys the matrix equation [equation] From Eq.(33), we find the spin projection operator [ref] [equation] which obeys the equation [equation] One can verify that the operators $p̌$ and $σ_p$ commute $[ p̌,σ_p]=0$ and, therefore, they have the common eigenfunctions.
