Detective Theory of Elementary Particles

Abstract:

Here is proposed a detective method which may give an answer to the question how many elementary particles there are in nature. Premising that some kinds of particles are elementary we ask whether other particles are elementary or composite. If we knew the off-the-energy-shell T-matrix element for the scattering between elementary particles, then we would be able to obtain an answer by the use of the integral equation given previously by Ezawa et al. The method is illustrated with a field theoretical soluble model which we shall call “Double Lee Model”.
