| This book is devoted to investigating the spinor structures in particle physics and in polarisation optics. In fact, it consists of two parts joined by the question: Which are the manifestations of spinor structures in different branches of physics. It is based on original research. The main idea is the statement that the physical understanding of geometry should be based on physical field theories. The book contains numerous topics with the accent on field theory, quantum mechanics and polarisation optics of the light, and on the spinor approach. |
