Abstract

By considering Dirac's equation using quaternions (ℍ) with their greater degree of freedom in imaginaries, it is shown that a model can be created with oscillations among flavors even if the particles, are massless. Furthermore the solutions are spin (1)/(2) and have helicities depending on whether their energy is positive or negative.
