Abstract

Hestenes’ geometric algebra and Dirac spinors are reviewed and united into a common mathematical formalism, a unification that establishes the Dirac equation as being manifestly covariant under the Lorentz group, and one that needs no matrix representation of the Dirac algebra. New and simple methods of amplitude or ‘‘trace’’ calculations are then described. A number of problems are then considered within the context of the new approach, such as relativistic spin projections, new and covariant C and T-transformations and spinors for massless and Majorana fields.
