Pauli answers a question asked by Dyson on the comparison of the Bohr-Rosenfeld analysis with the mathematical results of quantum electrodynamics for normalized field commutators.

Pauli gives additional remarks on Dyson's calculations.

Pauli makes a comment on a paper by Dyson, which is the first of a series of papers.

Pauli sends the copy of a letter from Pauli to Paul T Matthews (dyson_0065-1). The letter shows that Pauli regardsthe electrodynamics of charged scalar mesons as solved.

Pauli's letter praises Dyson's work. He also asks a question about renormalization technique.

Pauli writes about the connection of renormalization with power series expansion. He makes some remarks on the difficulties of meson theories and on mathematical formulation of fundamental laws of nature. He adds some remarks on his mathematical background.

Pauli's letter discusses some recent Beta-decay experiments in the U.S.A. and their bearing on the parity problem. The two component theory is not tenable in the light of these field theories, a deeper understanding of the parity problem is not possible.

Pauli refers to a paper by Weisskopf concerning the self-energy of the electron, which might be useful to Dirac on his discussion of the logarythmic infinities in the theory of holes. A copy of the paper is mailed to Dirac.

Pauli expresses great doubts as to the correctness of Dirac's quantum-electrodynamical approach. He explains that it is possible that the way to describe the interaction of particles with an electromagnetic field could be fundamentally wrong.

Pauli makes further remarks on Dirac's theory. He withdraws the objection concerning singular processes. He considers ways to derive Einstein's radiation laws. He makes some calculations on low-frequency photons. He comments on higher order corrections of the Klein-Nishina formula. He nnounces the publication of a paper about Dirac's theory.
