چکیده

We compare the Bakamjian-Thomas (BT) formulation of relativistic few-body systems with light front field theories that maintain closer contact with Feynman diagrams. We find that Feynman diagrams distinguish Melosh rotations and other kinematical quantities belonging to various composite subsystem frames that correspond to different loop integrals. The BT formalism knows only the rest frame of the whole composite system , where everything is evaluated. The goal of this article is to point out subtle, but important, differences between the Bakamjian-Thomas (BT) formulation of relativistic few-body systems [1] and light front field theories that maintain closer contact with Feynman diagrams (see, e.g., Ref. [2]). To be specific, we consider the triangle diagram that is a major ingredient of recent electromagnetic and weak baryon form factor evaluations in light front dynamics. We start with the effective Lagrangian for the N-q coupling

The status of the standard model is briefly reviewed in the light of the most recent set of experimental data, with particular emphasis to the limits on the Higgs boson mass. The search for a light Higgs boson at LEP 2 is also briefly analyzed.

Orthonormal spin-flavor wave functions of Lorentz covariant quark models of the Bakamjian-Thomas type are constructed for nucleon resonances. Three different bases are presented. The manifestly Lorentz covariant Dirac-Melosh basis is related to the Pauli-Melosh basis and the symmetrized Bargmann-Wigner basis that are manifestly orthogonal.
