The helicity operator is defined as h = sigma middot p/|p| where sigma = (sigma 0 0 sigma). Lets also define positive and negative helicity projection operators P^h_plusminus = (1 plusminus h)/2. Use natural units, h = c = 1. (a) By using the Dirac equation for a fermions with spinor u(p, s), mass m and energy E, show that P^h_plusminus = 1/2 (1 + gamma^5_|P| (E - beta m)). (b) For massless spin-1/2 particles like neutrino, show that the...
