On the remarkable properties of Weyl particles

Abstract

In this work we show that Weyl particles can exist at different states in zero electromagnetic field, either as free particles, or at localized states described by a parameter with dimensions of mass. We also calculate the electromagnetic fields that should be applied in order to modify the localization of Weyl particles at a desired rate. It is shown that they are simple electric fields, which can be easily implemented experimentally. Consequently, the localization of Weyl particles in certain materials supporting these particles could also be studied experimentally, in the framework of solid-state physics or in the framework of laser physics, using ions trapped by laser beams. In addition, a particularly important remark is that the localization of the energy of the particles can lead to the generation of gravitational mass, according to Einstein's field equations of general relativity. Furthermore, in the case that the energy and localization of the particles exceeds a critical level, tiny black holes could also be created, potential candidates for the dark matter of the universe.Comment: In this version we have added a remark regarding the potential to study experimentally the behavior of Weyl particles using ions trapped by laser beam
