Abstract

We discuss the invariance of the spinning free particle Lagrangian under the global coordinate transformations for the classical model of the electron with internal degrees of freedom and obtain the conservation of the energy-momentum, total angular momentum and electric charge. The local transformations give the minimal and non-minimal gravitational and minimal electromagnetic interactions of the spinning particle in the Riemann-Cartan space from the generalized spin connections.
