On the remarkable properties of Weyl particles

TL;DR

This paper explores the properties and potential manipulation of Weyl particles, including their localization, energy, and implications for gravitational mass and black hole formation, with relevance to experimental physics and cosmology.

Contribution

It introduces the concept of Weyl particles existing in localized states and proposes methods to control their localization using electric fields, linking quantum properties to gravitational effects.

Findings

Weyl particles can exist in localized states described by a mass parameter.

Electric fields can be used to modify Weyl particle localization.

High-energy localization may lead to tiny black hole formation.

Abstract

In this work we show that Weyl particles can exist at different states in zero electromagnetic field, either as free particles, or at localized states described by a parameter with dimensions of mass. We also calculate the electromagnetic fields that should be applied in order to modify the localization of Weyl particles at a desired rate. It is shown that they are simple electric fields, which can be easily implemented experimentally. Consequently, the localization of Weyl particles in certain materials supporting these particles could also be studied experimentally, in the framework of solid-state physics or in the framework of laser physics, using ions trapped by laser beams. In addition, a particularly important remark is that the localization of the energy of the particles can lead to the generation of gravitational mass, according to Einstein's field equations of general relativity. Furthermore, in the case that the energy and localization of the particles exceeds a critical level, tiny black holes could also be created, potential candidates for the dark matter of the universe.
