We study the Dirac equation with slowly varying external potentials. Using matrix-valued Wigner functions we prove that the electron follows with high precision the classical orbit and that the spin precesses according to the BMT equation with gyromagnetic ratio g=2. 2000

The semi-classical superspace pseudomechanics of Casalbuoni and others is shown to be the classical limit of a scalar superfield theory by a WKB type of approximation. By avoiding second class constraints, the relationship between the mechanics and the field theory is clarified. The spin 89 sector i
