Abstract:T h e weak interactions of leptons are defined by a few principles: lepton conservation, two-component neutrinos and the use of the 1 + y 5 components of electrons and muons. Baryons, pions and kaons interact with leptons through a current whose parity, isotopic spin and strangeness structure is to be determined by experiments on nuclear beta decay, muon capture and leptonic decay of hyperons and mesons. The weak interactions of baryons, pions and kaons among themselves are controlled by a Hamiltonian, whose q… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
