Covariant formulation of spontaneous symmetry breaking in chiral quantum field theory

Ковариантная формулировка спонтанного нарущения симметрии в киральной квантовой теории поля

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

For the (SU 2 ⊗SU 2)-invariant model of Gürsey a formulation is given in terms of a direct integral of Hilbert spaces. The structure of matrix elements, due to the spontaneous breakdown of the chiral symmetry is discussed.

Riassunto

Si presenta una formulazione per il modello di Gürsey invariante perSU 2 ⊗SU 2 in termini di un integrale diretto degli spazi di Hilbert. Si discute la struttura degli elementi di matrice, dovuta alla rottura spontanea della simmetria chirale.

Реэюме

Предлагается формулировкаSU 2⊗SU 2-инвариантной модели Гюр-сея в терминах прямого интеграла гильбертовых пространств. Обсуждается структура матричных злементов, обусловленная спонтанным нарущением киральной симметрии.
