We report an unexpected theoretical discovery of a spin one half matter field with mass dimension one. It is based on a complete set of eigenspinors of the charge conjugation operator. Due to its unusual properties with respect to charge conjugation and parity it belongs to a non standard Wigner class. Consequently, the theory exhibits non-locality with (CPT)^2 = - I. Its dominant interaction with known forms of matter is via Higgs, and with gravity. This aspect leads us to contemplate it as a first-principle candidate for dark matter.

  1. Wigner multiplets in QFT: dark sector and CPT-violating scenarios

    hep-ph 2025-02 reject novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper builds a local QFT for two-fold Wigner-degenerate spin-1/2 doublets and claims generic interactions violate CPT, but a standard diagonal CPT operator restores the symmetry for its own example.

  2. Generalized Elko Theory

    gr-qc 2019-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Generalizes Elko theory via a totally antisymmetric spinor field and notes possible links to matroids, qubits, and surreal numbers.
