Abstract

Spinors have in recent years become an important mathematical tool in special and general relativity. After a general review of the status of physical laws, it is shown why spinors are the “basic building bricks” of any Lorentz invariant law. The properties of spinors are briefly discussed and it is shown why it sometimes pays to translate a tensor problem into spinor language, solve it therein, and finally translate back.
