    The setting of this paper is provided by the standard round sphere \((S^n, g_0)\) with \(n\geq 3\) and its standard spin structure. More precisely, the spinorial Yamabe problem \(D_{S^n}u=|u|^{p-1}u\) is considered for \(p=\frac{n+1}{n-1}\) and the Dirac operator \(D\). Let us recall that this equation has important applications in conformal geometry. The main result is Theorem 2.2: There exists an infinite sequence \((u_j)_{j\geq 1}\) of solutions to the spinorial Yamabe equation with energy \(E(u_j)\rightarrow \infty \) as \(j\rightarrow \infty \).
