Abstract

The asymmetry, between electric (E) and magnetic (H) fields of Maxwell's equation is here analyzed by using the concept of chirality. The chiral spinorial approach sets the stage for the construction of a more general theory of spin-1 particles than usual electrodynamics. Chiral components of a rank-2 spinor field are taken as the dynamic variables of the theory. A rank-2 spinor accommodates another particle (the magnetic photon). This new particle emerges naturally from chiral invariance arguments. The nonexistence, in nature, of such a particle is the reason for the nonexistence of monopoles and the asymmetry in Maxwell's equation. The existence of magnetic monopoles would restore the symmetry of Maxwell's equation. We establish, in this way, at a very formal level, the connection between magnetic monopoles and chiral asymmetry.
