A possible generalization of the twistor description ofa massless particle to spacetime dimensions other than four is investigated. While the description of a massless particle's momentum in terms of a spinor is possible in spacetime dimensions of 3, 4, 6, and 10, the description of the angular mome

The classical equations of motion of a massless spinning test particle are derived as a limiting case of Mathisson-Papapetrou equations. It is shown that when a particular supplementary condition is assumed the particle follows a null geodesic and the spin is either parallel or antiparallel to the d

The theory for a spin-two massless-particle field interacting with sources is developed, in parallel with Maxwell's theory for photons interacting with charges. In the spin-two case there are two fields Eij and &, which are symmetric traceless tensors of opposite parity. Whereas a Maxwell source mus
