Light as Caused by Neither by Bound States nor by Neutrinos

Participants of this workshop pursue the old Neutrino Theory of Light vigorously. Other physicists have long ago abandoned it, because it lacks gauge invariance. In the recent Quantum Induction (QI), all basic Bose fields ${\mathcal B}^{P}$ are local limits of quantum fields composed of Dirac's $Ψ$ (for leptons and quarks). The induced field equations of QI even determine all the interactions of those ${\mathcal B}^{P}$. Thus a precise gauge invariance and other physical consequences are unavoidable. They include the absence of divergencies, the exclusion of Pauli terms, a prediction of the Higgs mass and a `minimal' Quantum Gravity. As we find in this paper, however, photons can't be bound states while Maxwell's potential $A_μ$ contains all basic Dirac fields except those of neutrinos.

Recovery of Dirac Equations from Their Solutions

We deal with quantum field theory in the restriction to external Bose fields. Let $(iγ^μ\partial_μ- \mathcal{B})ψ=0$ be the Dirac equation. We prove that a non-quantized Bose field $\mathcal{B}$ is a functional of the Dirac field $ψ$, whenever this $ψ$ is strictly canonical. Performing the trivial verification for the $\mathcal{B} := m = $ constant which yields the free Dirac field, we also prepare the tedious verifications for all $\mathcal{B}$ which are non-quantized and static. Such verifications must not be confused, however, with the easy and rigorous proof of our formula, which is shown in detail.

Pauli Terms Must Be Absent In Dirac Equation

It should be of interest, whether Dirac's equation involves all 16 basis elements of his Clifford algebra $Cl_D.$ These include the 6 `tensorial' $σ^{μν}$ with which the `Pauli terms' are formed. We find that these violate a basic axiom of any *-algebra, when Dirac's $Ψ$ is canonical. Then the Dirac operator is spanned only by the 10 elements $1,iγ_5,γ^μ,γ^μγ_5$ (which don't form a basis of $Cl_D$ because the $σ^{μν}$ are excluded).
