In the context of mathematics and theoretical physics, particularly in the fields of twistor theory and geometric analysis, a **local twistor** refers to an object or concept that is derived from the broader framework of twistor theory, as developed by Roger Penrose in the 1960s. Twistors provide a different way to analyze spacetime events and geometric structures, focusing on complex geometries rather than traditional real-number representations of space and time.
