Abstract
A pseudoclassical model is proposed to describe massive Dirac (spin-on e-half) particles in arbitrary odd dimensions. The quantization of the model reproduces the minimal quantum theory of spinning particles in such dimensions. A dimensional duality between the model proposed and the pseudoclassical description of Weyl particles in even dimensions i s discussed.
