Some General Features of the Bootstrap Theory of Octet Enhancement
Roger F. Dashen, Steven C. Frautschi · Physical Review · 1965
Some general features of the boostrap theory of octet enhancement, which can be understood without detailed calculations, are discussed. These features include: (i) the connection of this theory to the vector-mixing theory of symmetry breaking advocated by Sakurai, and to the tadpole theory of Coleman and Glashow; (ii) an understanding of why it is representations of low multiplicity that are dynamically emphasized in symmetry breaking; (iii) a demonstration that the theory remains valid when a number of assumptions made in previous applications are dropped.
