Description

Full text: (author)It is elaborated a new model of the higher-spin (HS) particle system which yields some other previously known higher-spin particle models as different gauge choices. Quantization of the model gives rise to a new form of the massless free higher-spin equations in a extended space involving, besides extra spinorial twistor-like variables, also a complex scalar coordinate. New higher-spin multiplets with a non-zero fixed minimal helicity are obtained. It is also discussed reformulation in terms of twistors
