Quantizing the line element field
A metric with signature (-+++) can be constructed from a metric with
signature (++++) and a double-sided vector field called the line element field.
Some of the classical and quantum properties of this vector field are studied.Comment: 9 page
Images of the Origin of Mass
Recent years have brought considerable progress with studies of the
bound-state problem in continuum QCD. A small part of that made with Dyson
Schwinger equations is highlighted herein. Topics covered include:
opportunities provided by precision experimental studies of the (far) valence
region; and capitalising upon new data on hadron elastic and transition form
factors.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures. Contribution to the Proceedings of MENU 2013 -
