Abstract

We present a short review of the spin curvatures that arise within the framework of one of the Infeld-van der Waerden formalisms for general relativity. All the spinor symmetries borne by the inner structure of general relativity are thus exhibited in an explicit way. The sourceful extension formulated in an earlier work of the two-component theory of gravitons in vacuum is concisely reviewed in connection with the establishment of an important total-symmetry property related to the energy-momentum conservation law of general relativity.
