Abstract
In an eailer reading [4], we did demonstrate that one can write down a general spin Dirac
equation by modifying the usual Einstein energy-momentum equation via the insertion of the quantity
“s” which is identified with the spin of the particle. That is to say, a Dirac equation that describes a
particle of spin S = 1
2 s~ where ~ is the normalised Planck constant, are the Pauli 2 × 2 matrices and
s = (±1,±2,±3, . . . etc). What is not clear in the reading [4] is how such a modified energy-momentum
relation would arise in Nature. At the end of the day, the insertion by sleight of hand of the quantity
“s” into the usual Einstein energy-momentum equation, would then appear to be nothing more than
speculation. In the present reading – by making use of the curved spacetime Dirac equations proposed in
the work [3], we move the exercise of [4] from the realm of speculation to that of plausibility.
