Abstract

When symmetries are present the solution of almost any physical problem is simplified, because we can get at the properties of a system without completely solving all the equations that describe the system. In high-energy physics, symmetry principles have been studied with an eye to circumventing two obstacles to the understanding of elementary particles: lack of precise knowledge about interparticle forces (with the exception of electromagnetism) and the mathematical intractability of any realistic models that propose to explain observed particle phenomena.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The state |ψ(β,t)> is a two-mode squeezed state.

    “We further point out that the state | ψ ( β, t ) 〉 is nothing but a two-mode squeezed state, that is generally defined by the action of the two-mode squeezing operator S LR ( ζ ) on the vacuum state [38]”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
