Dirac Spinors and Their Products by sayandatta1 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) Dirac spinors satisfy equations involving the Dirac operator (/p - m) acting on them. 2) The product of a Dirac spinor with itself is a 4x4 matrix. If you sum over the spinor indices, the result equals the Dirac operator plus or minus the mass. 3) This identity can be proven by applying both sides of the equations to the basis spinor vectors and showing they have the same effect.
