Heisenberg revokes his remarks made in the last letter.
Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg gives new calculations about the theory of holes. He writes about the gauge-invariance of certain expressions, about the problem of self-energy. he talks on the necessity for theories with infinite degrees of freedom and a quadratic wave equation should be possible in the case of absence of external fields.
Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg replies to Pauli's letter. He is now satisfied with the state of the theory of holes. There are two problems. The first is what kind of Schrödinger equation characterizes the theory of holes and what are at any moment the expectation values for current and charge-density. The second problem is what are the expectation values for the energy-density. He discusses the solutions for both problems. If Pauli agrees, he would like to publish the theory of holes in the present form. He is grateful for Pauli's criticism of his attempts to solve the self-energy question.
Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg gives a few corrections to the last letter.
Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg sends a manuscript describing the present situation of the theory of holes. He expresses the hope that the way from this theory to the explanation of $^{2}$/(h.c) will be short.
Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg talks about his attempts to find the value for e$^{2}$/(h.c.) by a suitable holes theory.
Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg talks of more progress about e$^{2}$(h.c.). He also writes of a solution of the Schrödinger equation in the present theory of holes by a power-series of e$^{2}$(h.c.).
Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg writes on a typical difference betwen quantum electrodynamics and Fermi's Beta-Decay theory. The existence of cosmic ray showers can possibly be explained by Fermi's theory. He gives numerical calculations.
Heisenberg, WernerHeisenberg talks about some plausibility arguments against Pauli's objections and about a possible solution for the interaction of neutrinos in the case of many particles. He writes about an application of a kind of Thomas-Fermi-method for the state of lowest energy. From this interaction the production of showers can possibly follow.
