Electrodynamics of charged vector mesons

Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

Questions of the correctness of the motion equations are considered in Stückelberg and Borgardt's theory in the presence of anomalous magnetic and electric quadrupole moments for the vector meson. The coherence of the quantization scheme with indefinite metric developed leads to invariantness of the Lagrangian for the operation of metric conjugation, which in turn causes transitions between states with spin 1 and spin 0 to be forbidden. The vector meson pair formation section is calculated for photons in a nuclear field.
