Abstract
IN the attempt to discover a place for Dirac's equation in the geometry and metric of the physical world, it has been proposed to make use of Weyl's concept of gauging. It was thus proposed to bring ubout the union of gravitation and electromagnetism by Kaluza's suggestion of the adoption of a five-dimensional continuum leaving the idea of gauging free to bring about the union of the quantum theory with these branches of physics.
