For the spin-1/2 fermion field ψ, we may choose it to be a spinor which needs to be
- Grassmann variable
but can also be
- complex C Grassmann. (Dirac or Weyl spinor/fermion)
- We can ask: Can be in real R Grassmann. (Majorana or Majorana-Weyl spinor/fermion)
What are the legal values of spin-1 field can take? real R, complex C, quaternion H, .. (Grassmann)? (p.s. I remember S Adler tries to construct quaternion QFT -- is this related to the quaternion field.)
