Summary
A harmonic-oscillator model of the ω-meson is analysed to account for the known fact that the ω-meson has spin one. Possibilities of generalizing the theory to relativistic resonances are briefly considered.
Riassunto
Si analizza un modello di oscillatore armonico per il mesone ω allo scopo di spiegare il noto fatto che il mesone ω ha spin 1. Si discute brevemente la possibilità di generalizzare la teoria a risonanze relativistiche.
