    Kernel of the classicalZitterbewegung.Nuri Ünal - 1997 - Foundations of Physics 27 (5):747-758.
    Barut's classicalzitterbewegung model includes the internal dynamical variables and the quantization of this system gives a general transition amplitude between the different space-time points and internal coordinates and momentum. It includes the transition amplitude between the half integer and integer spin eigenvalues. Spin eigenfunctions lead to all sets of relativistic wave equations, as well as the Dirac equation.

    Path Integral Quantization of a Spinning Particle.Nuri Ünal - 1998 - Foundations of Physics 28 (5):755-762.
    Barut's classical model of the spinning particle having external dynamical variables x and p and internal dynamical variables $\bar z$ and z is taken into account. The path integrations over holomorphic spinors $\bar z$ and z are discussed. This quantization gives the kernel of the relativistic particles with higher spin as well as the Dirac electron. The Green's function of the spin-n/2 particle is obtained.

    Symmetry and Integrability in the Classical Model of Zitterbewegung.Yusuf Sucu & Nuri Ünal - 2012 - Foundations of Physics 42 (8):1067-1077.
    We extended the Barut’s classical model of zitterbewegung from 3+1 dimensional spacetime into 2+1 and 1+1 dimensional spacetimes and discussed the symmetry and integrability properties of the model in 2+1, 1+1 and 3+1 dimensions. In these cases, the free particle current or the velocity of the particle can be decomposed as a constant convection current and polarization currents.In 2+1 dimensional spacetime, a velocity of the particle and spin tensor are dependent to each other and the chirality can not be introduced.

  4. A simple model of the classicalZitterbewegung: Photon wave function. [REVIEW]Nuri Ünal - 1997 - Foundations of Physics 27 (5):731-746.
    We propose a simple classical model of the zitterbewegung. In this model spin is proportional to the velocity of the particle, the component parallel top is constant and the orthogonal components are oscillating with2p frequency. The quantization of the system gives wave equations for spin,0, 1/2, 1, 3/2,…, etc. respectively. These equations are convenient for massless particles. The wave equation of the spin-1, massless free particle is equivalent to the Maxwell equations and the state functions have a probability interpretation and (...)
