Composition of massive from massless bosons

Massive bosons a reconstructed from generalized
biparticle states of massless scalar particles ("zerons")
and of massless vector particles (photons). The self-coupling of the zeron field ϭ₀ is described by the
Lagrangian density g₀º₀⁴. The self-coupling of the
photon field is described by the duality in variant
Misner-Wheeler Lagrangian density. Doublet mass spectra
are generated if the coupling constants take the appropriate signs. Each such spectrum is fitted to that of
an experimentally observed meson doublet having the
correct spin and parity. The coupling constants and
the cut-offs that are introduced are there by determined
uniquely. The coupling constant and the cut-off ⋋ in
the zeron model assume the values g₀ = -9.50 and ⋋ = 515 n.u. in the photon model, both scalar and pseudo scalar
particles are constructed. The respective cut-offs and
coupling constants are ⋋ ₍₊₎ = 729 n.u. , g₊ = 1.67 x 10⁻⁵ n.u. and ⋋ ₍₋₎ = 574 n.u., g₍₋₎ = 3.34 x 10⁻⁵ n.u. / Science, Faculty of / Physics and Astronomy, Department of / Graduate
