They are introduced in Proceedings of the Seventh Marcel Grossmann Meeting on General Relativity, Stanford, 1994, edited by Robert T. Jantzen and G. Mac Keiser (World Scientific, Singapore, 1996);
22. U.H. Gerlach, Int. J. Mod. Phys. A 11, 3667 (1996); this last reference contains three errata: (i) On p. 3668, line 6, the word “existent” should be substituted for the word “existence.” Without this substitution the parenthetical definition becomes meaningless. (ii) The whole paragraph in the middle of p. 3670 is a misplaced version of the caption to Fig. 11. Consequently, this paragraph should be deleted. (iii) The corrected sentence at the very end of Sec. 7 (on p. 3686) should read “(Formula presented) the spinor transformation which relates Eq. (5.15) to Eq. (5.18).” The above account of these three errata will save the curious reader the task of tracking them down in
