This is the continuation of the letter of the 16 January 1958. Pauli gives a new idea of indefinite metric.
Sem títuloPauli makes detailed suggestions for the writing of the "preliminary report" of their paper. He says that there are some points which still need clarification.
Sem títuloPauli continues his last letter.
Sem títuloPauli talks about the preliminary report on their joint work. Pauli does not believe anymore in many of the statements in this report. He has written to Heisenberg that the assumption of vacuum degeneration does not seem necessary to him. He writes about his talk with Gürsey in Brookhaven. Pauli expresses his optimism about the solution of the general formal questions, which have nothing to do with group theory. He believes that the symmetry violations do not depend on arbitrary terms in the Hamiltonian but on the metric in Hilbert-space.
Sem títuloPauli writes about the Rochester conference in July. He also writes about dispersion relations and theory of elementary particles.He writes about his work with Heisenberg and about the reaction of other physicists to it. He comments on mirror states in the spinor model and on vacuum degeneracy.
Sem títuloHeisenberg replies to Pauli's problem of the mirror-world. He writes on new problems in connection with the eigenvalue question.
Sem títuloGürsey writes on the degeneracy of the vacuum and the mirror problem.
Sem títuloPauli gives some more suggestions for formulation of their results.
Sem títuloPauli expresses satisfaction over Gürsey's idea to make the neutrino rather than the vacuum responsible for strangeness. He discusses several difficulties connected with the spinor-model.
