Opening the Pandora's box of quantum spinor fields
Lounesto's classification of spinors is a comprehensive and exhaustive
algorithm that, based on the bilinears covariants, discloses the possibility of
a large variety of spinors, comprising regular and singular spinors and their
unexpected applications in physics and including the cases of Dirac, Weyl, and
Majorana as very particular spinor fields. In this paper we pose the problem of
an analogous classification in the framework of second quantization. We first
discuss in general the nature of the problem. Then we start the analysis of two
basic bilinear covariants, the scalar and pseudoscalar, in the second quantized
setup, with expressions applicable to the quantum field theory extended to all
types of spinors. One can see that an ampler set of possibilities opens up with
respect to the classical case. A quantum reconstruction algorithm is also
proposed. The Feynman propagator is extended for spinors in all classes.Comment: 18 page
