Abstract
The electron of magnetic spin −1/2 is a Dirac fermion of a complex four-component spinor field. Though it is effectively addressed by relativistic quantum field theory, an intuitive form of the fermion still remains lacking. In this novel undertaking, the fermion is examined within the boundary posed by a recently proposed MP model of a hydrogen atom into 4D space-time. Such unorthodox process conceptually transforms the electron to the four-component spinor of non-abelian in both Euclidean and Minkowski space-times. Supplemented by several postulates, the relativistic and non-relativistic applications of the model are explored from an alternative perspective. The outcomes have important implications towards defining the spin-orbit coupling of particles from external light interactions. These findings, if considered could consolidate properly the fundamentals of the quantum state of matter from an alternative perspective using quantum field theory application and they warrant further investigations.
