Summary
Invariance algebras of the Dirac spin-1/2 massive and massless particles are obtained. It is shown how to extend the calculations to Maxwell’s equations. The transformations obtained do not involve the masses of the particles.
Riassunto
Si ottengono algebre d’invarianza delle particelle con massa e senza massa di Dirac con spin 1/2. Si mostra come estendere i calcoli alle equazioni di Maxwell. Le trasformazioni ottenute non coinvolgono le masse delle particelle.
Реэюме
Получаются инвариантные алгебры Дирака для массивных и беэ-массовых частиц со спином половина. Покаэывается, как проведенные вычисления обобшаются на случай уравнений Максвелла. Полученные преобраэования не включают массы рассматриваемых частиц.
