Born expresses a great interest in Pauli's paper on Eyl's theory and agrees in particular to his remark that continuum theory cannot be applied to the interior of the electron because of the introduction of quantities which are in principle unobservable. He suggests to Pauli to prove that the surface energy of NaCl cube is smaller than that of any other surface.
Born, MaxBudini has not yet reached a satisfactory result as regards the orthogonality of the eigen-solutions of an equation connected with the regular representation of the homogeneous Lorentz group.
Budini, PaoloBudini thanks Pauli for his letter. He is now convinced that the eigen-functions in question are not orthogonal to each other.
Budini, PaoloCaldirola replies to Pauli's question about time dilatation.
Caldirola, PieroThis letter from Casimir is accompagnied by an offprint by Casimir and B L van der Waerden "Algebraischer Beweis der vollständigen Reduzibilität der Darstellungen halbeinfacher Liescher Gruppen" (in: Math. Ann. : 111 (1935), pp.1-12). The letter contains a short reference to mathematical problems, experimental results on supraconductivity and personal remarks on Kronig.
Casimir, Hendrik Brugt GerhardClusius refers to quotations on atoms made by several figures from the late 19th century. He quotes Marignac.
Clusius, KlausCorbière, from the "Société des Gens de Lettres de France", requests Pauli's participation in a world survey titled "Maximes de vie des écrivains et des savants contemporains". He adds a list of all participants.
Corbière, HenriCorson writes about his plans for a trip to Europe and of his visit to Pauli in Zürich and to Heisenberg in Münich.
Corson, Edward MCorson announces his visit to Europe in Spring 1959. He asks for Pauli's opinion on Heisenberg's non-linear field theory.
