Pauli writes on the formulation of the Lee theory without infinities, and on the non-unitarity of the S-matrix in Lee's theory.
Sin títuloPauli agrees with Källén about the correctness of the mathematics of the Lee-model. He writes on a question where to publish the paper. He agrees with Källén that Heisenberg's idea about the derivation of the electromagnetic field from spinor-fields must be wrong. He hopes that an improved renormalization mathematics might lead to a sort of eigenvalue-problem for the fine-structure constant.
Sin títuloPauli replies to Fierz's letter of the 15th December 1954, in particular about the "ghosts" (negative probabilities) in quantum electrodynamics and about the shortcomings of renormalization physics.
Sin títuloPauli sends further remarks on the state of quantum electrodynamics and he writes on Schafroth's work in Australia.
Sin títuloPauli writes about a dissertation by Mr Choquard.
Sin títuloPauli thanks Wightman and Michel for the study of his paper. He remarks on a priority question regarding Schwinger's paper of 1951. He writes about properties of isotopic spin spaces. He writes about "Schwinger's school" and "Wigner's school".
Sin títuloMichel makes an amendment to his previous letter of 22-12-54.
Sin títuloPauli asks questions concerning the thermodynamics of supraconductivity and about a letter by Dyson.
Sin títuloPauli criticises a paper by three pupils of Heisenberg on "the formulation of quantized field theories". He makes some remarks on Lee's model.
Sin títuloPauli encloses a copy of the manuscript of his lecture in Mainz, and asks for comments.
