Abstract
In this paper, the canonical wave equation and auxiliary conditions for a massless particle with arbitrary integral or half-integral spin s are derived from a symmetric spinor formulation. The wave equation is solved for the multipole solutions using the appropriate parity operator for each spin. Finally, the characteristic hypersurfaces for the wave equation are derived and found to agree with that of the photon. The special cases of spins one, three-halves, and two are detailed in conclusion.
