Expository notes on Clifford algebras and spinors with a detailed discussion of Majorana, Weyl, and Dirac spinors. The paper is meant as a review of background material, needed, in particular, in now fashionable theoretical speculations on neutrino masses. It has a more mathematical flavour than the over twenty-seven-year-old "Introduction to Majorana masses" by P.D. Mannheim and includes historical notes and biographical data on past participants in the story.

  1. Real Clifford algebras and their spinors for relativistic fermions

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Real Clifford algebras in all signatures are classified and spinors are constructed as minimal or quasi-minimal left ideals, with a structure map controlling the action of the pin group and defining two Dirac adjoints.
