Abstract

It is shown how the spectrum generating group approach can be used in relativistic physics to describe hadron masses and transition rates without using approximation procedures. The electromagnetic potential and field operators of the model are chosen to depend on a relativistically covariant intrinsic collective position operator ξμ having non-commuting components whose commutation relations follow directly from those of the spectrum generating group SO(3,2).
