Spinor Theory

Spinor Theory is a mathematical framework within relativistic quantum mechanics that formulates the behavior of spin-½ particles through Lorentz-covariant objects called spinors, distinguishing it from scalar or vector theories by encoding intrinsic angular momentum and transformation properties under the double cover of the Lorentz group.
