Pauli writes about his visit to Hamburg and gives his impression of Jordan. Annexed to the letter (in fierz_0092-163) Pauli describes 7 dreams. He would like to know of Fierz's reaction to these dreams. The letters are dated 1954-07-20, 1954-08-28, 1954-09-30, 1954-10-01 (?), 1955-08-12, 1955-08-27.

Pauli writes about depression and on the common roots of scientific and religious feelings in him. He also makes references to his dream from the 24 October 1955 and his lecture in Mainz.

Pauli writes about the English translation of his book on relativity. In continuation of his letter of the 27 January 1956, he comments a meeting in Hamburg, on the 1 December 1955, with somebody he has not seen for thirty years and relates this experience to his striving for a balance of the "internal" and "external".

Pauli comments on a proof of a paper by Fierz on Jordan's theory of gravitation.

Pauli comments on a paper by Farquhar and Landsberg "On the Quantum statistical ergodic and H-theorem" which refers to Fierz's work. He also makes additional remarks on Fierz's paper on the H-theorem.

Pauli makes a suggestion concerning the ergodic problem and he also writes about a meeting he had with Pryce in Varenna.

Pauli discusses the relation between reactions of mesons with neutrinos and the beta-disintegration of nucleons. Pauli added some information to this letter in a second letter dated the same day (fierz_0092-175).

Pauli discusses some probelms of beta-disintegration, with special referecne to the "Fierz-terms".

Pauli writes on the importance of a paper by Coester, published in: Physical review: 83 (1951), for the problem of the transition from neutral vector mesons to quantum electrodynamics. He explains the connection of this paper with that of four Japanese physicists, published in: Progress of theoretical physics: 6 (1951) on the possibiliy of avoiding indefinite metric in Hilbert-space in quantum electrodynamics.

Pauli writes on a correspondence with Heisenberg on his ideas on field quantization.
