Scope and content
Pauli talks about the preliminary report which he and Heisenberg have circulated about 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 any more necessary to him. He writes about his talk with Gürsey in Brookhaven. Pauli speaks of 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.
