Abstract
Progress in the unified field theory of elementary particles over the last seven years includes experimental verification of the scale group and its application in theoretical investigations; connecting the unified field theory with phenomenological current algebra; exploring the consequences of the indefinite metric for the problem of causality and the classification of leptons; elaboration of methods for the calculation of mass eigenvalues; and experimental verification of the predicted behavior of cross-sections at extremely high energies.
Der vorliegende Vortrag wurde im Frühjahr 1973 an verschiedenen Universitäten in den USA gehalten und wird daher hier in englischer Sprache wiedergegeben.
