Scope and content
Heisenberg gives a description of the present situation of the field-theory. In a more complete future theory there will exist no particles smaller than the universal length, and the divergences of the present theory will be avoided. He writes about more considerations about nuclear theory. The pair production observed up to now can only be interpreted as internal emission. About an experimental paper on shower production in great depth.
