Dynamical breaking of general covariance and massive spin-2 mesons

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D, v. 12, no. 12, pp. 3969-3971
In a system of massive fermions in interaction with massless tensor and scalar mesons, the existence of a massless vector bound state in the fermion- antifermion channel gives a mass to the spin-2 particle and leads to a gauge- invariant and unitary S matrix which is completely free of massless poles.
