Are ThereJth Order Resonances of SpinJ?

Abstract

It is suggested that the sequence p, A 2 , R, 5, • • • is a sequence of multipole resonances. Thus, the A 2 is a doubled resonance, the R is a tripled resonance, and so on. This hypothesis is consistent with present experimental data. The multipole resonance hypothesis is related to narrow-width resonance models in which undesirable states are eliminated with the aid of satellite Veneziano terms. The high-energy behavior is similar to normal Regge Behavior.

Constant-Crossed-Field Acceleration, a Mechanism for the Generation of Cosmic Rays by Strong Low-Frequency Electromagnetic Waves

“…8 From this discussion it is evident that CCFA is an extremely efficient means in astrophysics to drive protons to cosmic-ray energies. Laboratory devices (lasers) are presently being considered 14 for an application of the above considerations of CCFA.…”
