  4. The first “radiative” effects (experimentally) discovered are the Lamb-shift and the “anomalous” magnetic moment of the electron. They are examples of two distinct phenomena. One (the Lamb-shift) can be almost fully (95%) accounted for by a non-relativistic calculation (as done byH. A. Bethe who found 1040 MHz:The Electromagnetic Shift of Energy Levels, Phys. Rev.,72 (1947) 339), while the other (the “anomalous” magnetic moment) cannot. The fact that the gyromagnetic ratio of the electron is predicted by the Dirac equation to beg = 2 cannot be accounted for by any non-relativistic description. The magnetic behaviour of an electron in a magnetic field corresponds to the effect caused by the emission and reabsorption of virtual photons on its magnetic moment. The “anomalous” magnetic moment of the electron,i.e. itsg value being different from 2, needs a relativistic description of the virtual electromagnetic processes. This was done by J. Schwinger a few months after the experimental discovery of the Lamb-shift:Phys. Rev.,73 (1948) 416. In this paper the “anomalous” magnetic moment of the electron was theoretically found to be the by now famous (α/2π). Furthermore, while the Lamb-shift affects only the hydrogen atom, the deviation from QED of an intrinsic property such as the “magnetic” moment of an elementary particle (the electron) is expected to affect other particles as well. In fact—when the muon came in—the “anomalous” magnetic moment of this unexpected particle was considered the crucial check in order to verify its intrinsic properties (see subsect. 2.2.2).

  17. Kaluza andKlein were the first [19, 20] to think and propose that the electromagnetic forces could be described in terms of an extra dimension of space to be added to the standard Lorentz space-time as the one illustrated in fig. 4. Thus, instead of (3 +1) dimensions, the Lorentz space should have (4 + 1) dimensions. The extra space dimension, the 5th one, would be compactified around a circle, thus producing the U(1) symmetry which generates the electromagnetic forces. The latest news is that our world has its origin in 11 bosonic dimensions (10 space + 1 time) and 32 fermionic dimensions. We shall try to summarize here how we go from these 43 dimensions of the superspace to our world with (3 + 1) bosonic dimensions and the gauge forces SU(3) ×SU(2) × U(1) plus 3 families. Note that the time dimension is always one. The space dimensions are 10. In (10 +1) dimensions supergravity has no gauge group,i.e. no vector fields. If one dimension is compactified, this becomes a coupling. In fact superstring theory in (9 + 1) dimensions plus a coupling is equivalent to supergravity in (10 + 1) dimensions, as shown by P. Horova and E. Witten [21]. The new development is that the compactification must be done on a segment (not on a circle àla Kaluza-Klein). The end points of the segment each have 10 dimensions. Imposing anomaly cancellation, gauge groups appear and these are E8 × E8. It is the compactification into a segment and the condition of anomaly cancellation which produces the gauge groups E8 × E8. The compactification into a segment reduces the number of fermionic dimensions from 32 to 16. If the compactification were on a circle (àla Kaluza-Klein), the number of fermionic dimensions would remain 32. Another important detail: the length of the segment gives the coupling. A long segment corresponds to a strong coupling; a short segment corresponds to a weak coupling for the string theory. The last step is the compactification of the 6 remaining bosonic dimensions in a Calabi-Yau manifold [22, 23]. This manifold has the property of reducing the 16 fermionic dimensions into 4 fermionic dimensions (i.e. N = 1 supersymmetry) and giving rise to the gauge groups E6 × E8. The E6 group containsSU(3) ×SU(2) × U(1) and this is the standard model. The group E8 remains hidden and all particles of our world are singlets. The particles of E8 communicate with the particles of the standard model via gravitational interactions. The hope is that this hidden E8 sector, gravitationally coupled to the standard model, is going to be the source of supersymmetry breaking [24]. An important detail is that the 6-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifold has the property that right and left-handed states are not equal in number. Therefore, parity violation is in the structure of space. Another important point is that the number of families can be derived [25] from the topological properties of the Calabi-Yau manifold [26]. In other words, why are there three families has as answer, another question: why that particular topological property in the Calabi-Yau manifold? Thus, the origin of the fictitious spaces with one, two and three complex dimensions is in the 43 dimensions of the superspace.

Pauli in his articleExclusion Principle, Lorentz Group and Reflection of Space-Time and Charge, inNiels Bohr and the Development of Physics ((Pergamon Press, London) 1955, p. 30), which in turn is an extension of the work of J. Schwinger (Phys. Rev.,82 (1951) 914;The Theory of Quantized Fields. II., Phys. Rev.,91 (1953) 713;The Theory of Quantized Fields. III., Phys. Rev.,91 (1953) 728;The Theory of Quantized Fields.

Medd.,28 (1954) 5), which referred to an unpublished remark by B. Zumino. The final contribution to theCPT Theorem was given by R. Jost, inEine Bemerkung zum CPT Theorem (Helv. Phys. Acta,30 (1957) 409), who showed that a weaker condition, called “weak local commutativity” was sufficient for the validity of theCPT Theorem.

  42. After the experimental discovery of the effect [1], W. F. Weisskopf and his student J. Bruce French were the first to correctly calculate the energy difference between the two energy levels of the hydrogen atom (22 S 1/2 22 P 1/2). Julian Schwinger and Richard Feynman were also engaged in the same calculations but both of them had made the same mistake, thus getting the same (wrong) answer. Unfortunately (for Weisskopf), both Schwinger and Feynman were in contact with Weisskopf who could not believe that these two extremely bright members of the younger generation of physicists engaged in computing this unexpected new “effect” could both be wrong. Thus Weisskopf decided to postpone the publication of his (correct) result. Meanwhile Lamb and his student Norman Kroll published their (correct) result (Kroll N. M. andLamb W. E.,On the Self-Energy of a Bound Electron,Phys. Rev.,75 (1949) 388) while Weisskopf was waiting for the cross-check (French J. B. and Weisskopf V. F.,The Electromagnetic Shift of Energy Levels, Phys. Rev.,75 (1949) 1240).

  43. The first report on “scaling” was presented by J. I. Friedman at the 14th International Conference onHigh Energy Physics at Vienna, 28 August-5 September 1968. The report was presented as paper n. 563 but not published in the Conference Proceedings. It was published as a SLAC preprint. The SLAC data on scaling were included in the Panofsky general report to the Conference where he says «… the apparent success of the parametrization of the cross-sections in the variablev/q2 in addition to the large cross-section itself is at least indicative that point-like interactions are becoming involved», Panofsky W.

  45. Zichichi A.,New Developments in Elementary Particle Physics, Rivista Nuovo Cimento,2, n. 14 (1979). The statement on page 2 of this paper, «Unificationof all forces needs first a Supersymmetry. This can be broken later, thus generating the sequence of the various forces of nature as we observe them», was based on a work by A. Petermann and A. Zichichi where the renormalization group running of the couplings using supersymmetry was studied with the result that the convergence of the three couplings improved. This work was not published, but perhaps known to a few. The statement quoted is the first instance in which it was pointed out that supersymmetry may play an important role in the convergence of the gauge couplings. In fact, the convergence of three straight lines (α1/−1 α2/−1 α3/−1) with a change in slope is guaranteed by Euclidean geometry, as long as the point where the slope changes is tuned appropriately. What is non-trivial about the convergence of the couplings is that with the initial conditions given by the LEP results, the change in slope needs to be atMSVSY ∼ 1 TeV as claimed by the authors of ref. [49].

  198. As early as 1938 E. C. G. Stueckelberg introduced what is now called the “Baryon number conservation”. Stueckelberg noted that the number of protons and neutrons (the heavy particles) in the Universe can never change, otherwise matter itself would be unstable. This postulate became of great relevance with the advent of the Grand Unified Theories in the Seventies.
