CONSERVATION OF PARITY IN THE THEORY OF ELEMENTARY PARTICLES
The system of five-dimensional optics (Usp. Mat. Nauk in which parity is conserved and is not conserved. Fivedimensional optics is based on the deep- lying symmetry of the equations of classical and quantum mechanics in space, time, and action. The coordinates, time and action, are combined in a five- dimensional metric space which is topologically bounded in the action coordinate with a period equal to the Planck constant. The momentum energy and charge are combined in a five-dimensional vector for which a single conservation law is formulated. The action is an algebraic quantity, and a change in the sign of the action is equivalent to ordinary charge conjugation. Two types of effects are considered: emission of a boson by a fermion (pair production) and decay of a boson into two fermions. (J.S.R.)
