Historical development of the Bhabha first-order relativistic wave equations for arbitrary spin

  • 1. Los Alamos Scientific Lab., NM

Description

From letters, personal reminiscences, and the published works of the authors involved, the historical development of the Bhabha system of first-order relativistic wave equations for arbitrary spin is described. The simplest special cases of these equations reduce to the Dirac and DKP (Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau) equations for spin-1/2 and spins 0 and 1, respectively
