order differential equation and the suggestion that in β decay these spinors act without …

The universal Fermi interaction

EJ Konopinski, HM Mahmoud - Physical Review, 1953 - APS
On the basis of the hypothesis that the same form of interaction acts among any spin-½
particles, it is interesting to apply the interaction law found for β decay to the muon …

Interaction between four half-spin particles and the decay of the μ-meson

L Michel - Proceedings of the Physical Society. Section A, 1950 - iopscience.iop.org
The general direct coupling between four fermions is studied. It is a linear combination of the
five invariants used in β-decay theory. Altering the order of the particles in the Hamiltonian …

mode,'and all existing results on strange particle decays (except for the decay of the hyperon …

Physics of neutrinos

M Fukugita, T Yanagida - Physics and astrophysics of neutrinos, 1994 - Springer
Ever since it was first proposed the neutrino has played a crucial role in the advancement of
our understanding of particle physics. The neutrino was first conjectured by W. Pauli in a …

On the universal Fermi interaction

SA Bludman - Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965), 1958 - Springer
The parity-non-conserving, VA form of Fermi interaction is derived from a principle of
invariance under a continuous group of transformations, in analogy with the ordinary gauge …

Fermi decay of higher spin particles

RE Behrends, C Fronsdal - Physical Review, 1957 - APS
The explicit form for the spin projection operators introduced by Fronsdal is calculated for
arbitrary spin and applied to first-order processes involving four fermions. The matrix …

Mass reversal and weak interactions

JJ Sakurai - Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965), 1958 - Springer
An attempt is made to construct a theory of all weak processes from a single invariance
principle. The requirement that the weak interaction Hamiltonian be invariant under the …

Some Consequences of -Invariance

G Lüders, B Zumino - Physical Review, 1957 - APS
KK and Yang'recently proposed that parity may~ & not be conserved in weak interactions
and sug-gested various experiments to verify their hypothesis. Two of the experiments have …
