TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the amplitude for the decay of an ω-meson into two pions at an invariant total mass equal to that of the ϱ-0 meson can be described as though due entirely to the mediation of a virtual ϱ0, coupled to the ω by an effective electromagnetic interaction Lagrangian λ(ω·ρ0 − ω0ϱ00) The imaginary part of λ is fixed in magnitude by various considerations based mainly on unitarity, hermiticity, the substitution law, and certain

TL;DR: In this paper, a solution of the finite energy sum rule (FESR) for baryon-antibaryon scattering with or without assuming resonances in exotic channels is presented.
Abstract: Discussions are given of possible solutions for the Finite Energy Sum Rules (FESR), applied to baryon-antibaryon scattering, with or without assuming resonances in exotic channels Exotic resonances, assuming they exist, are classified, as a result of factorization, according to 36-plet, 18-plet, 18-plet and nonet It is then shown that these mesons are required to obey an equal spacing mass formula and nonet-like couplings, which are direct extensions of the ideal nonet scheme for 1- and 2+ mesons When there are no resonances in exotic channels, the idea of duality between ordinary meson resonances is not applicable to baryon-antibaryon scattering However, by extending the concept of the duality, it is possible to find a solution of the FESR \"fVe construct an explicit formula with such extended duality, where Regge cuts as well as Regge poles appear in the amplitude in question

TL;DR: In this paper, a group-theoretical analysis of spontaneous symmetry breaking is carried out in an extension of Glashow's work, and a general theorem is proved which is then used to give several interesting results.
Abstract: A group‐theoretical analysis of spontaneous symmetry breaking is carried out in an extension of Glashow's work. A general theorem is proved which is then used to give several interesting results. Apart from a rederivation of Glashow's result, we are able to show, among other things, the following: If a hadronic triplet exists in nature which is nontrivially coupled to the rest of the hadrons, then octet enhancement immediately follows independently of any dynamical detail; in models containing the vector nonet, φ ‐ ω mixing can, in principle, occur as a particular form of spontaneous symmetry breaking in the octet pattern; and if octet enhancement holds, the very accurate mass formula mφ2+mω2=2mk2* is established without recourse to any dynamical detail. Under the same general assumption, a further relation is found relating the mass of the nonet with the mixing angle, which is 4mk2*−3(cos2θmφ2+sin2θmω2)−mρ2=0.

TL;DR: In this article, a representation of space-time as a bilinear product of spinors and a suggestion concerning the nature of space time in the region occupied by an elementary particle are examined.
Abstract: In this note a representation of space-time as a bilinear product of spinors and a suggestion concerning the nature of space-time in the region occupied by an elementary particle are examined. These ideas were put forward by S~Rz (1), who defined the internalsymmetry algebra Ua in terms of differential operators in the spinor variables and then derived the Gell-Nfann-Okubo (2) mass formula for hadrons from the tensor properties of the mass operator of the external (de Sitter) space-time symmetry algebra. The novelty of this approach prompts us to consider its relationship to the way in which this problem has been attempted previously, i.e: by embedding the external and internal symmetry algebras in a larger higher-symmetry or noninvariance algebra Let W~ be a four-component complex spinor, providing a basis for the fourdimensional representation of SUe.e, the group of 4 x 4 complex unimodular matrices satisfying

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the SL(2, C) • Poincare associative algebraic model of Bohm can be extended without essential difficulty to an SL( 2, C • de Sitter model which gives rise to a meson mass formula with both spin and isospin dependence.
