Solid rotation

Nehru covered most of this in his papers on spin, where he defined magnetic rotations (such as the neutrino) to be a solid rotation (2d rotation), where you rotate through 4π radians (720 degrees), instead of 360.I wonder if this can be related somehow to Steven J. Smith's model of neutrino as "half integer spin packet of electromagnetic energy".
Visually, a 1d rotation is the triangular slice expanding to fill the circle and a 2d rotation is a cone expanding to fill a sphere.
Just use the concept of dimensional reduction (birotation) to reduce the fermion solid rotation to a single rotation. Then you can treat it like electricity and use normal antenna geometry. (Two 1d rotations reduce to a wave; two 2d rotations reduce to a 1d rotation).Therefore a radically different coupling method (transmitting antenna geometry) is needed to produce the requisite half integer spin (fermion) waveform.
