We aspire to fufill Majorana's original goal of bringing full symmetry between the charged and fundamentally neutral particles. We present a description of fundamentally neutral particles without any reliance on Dirac spinors. We show that the extended set Majorana spinors (a) describe a Wigner class of fermions in which the charge conjugation and the parity operators commute, rather than anticommute, and (b) support two type of dispersion relations, the usual E= pm sqrt{p^2+m^2}, and a new E=- 2m \pm sqrt{p^2+m^2}. The latter may be preferred over the former on minimization of energy requirement and offers a natural source for observed matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe. The ensuing physical interpretation requires existence of a preferred frame which may be identified with the cosmic neutrino background.

  1. Wigner multiplets in QFT: from Wigner degeneracy to Elko fields

    hep-th 2025-04 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Under Lorentz covariance, causality, and canonical quantization, the Wigner superposition field is shown to be uniquely realized by the Elko field, which has mass dimension one and Klein-Gordon kinematics.
