Title: Dynamically parametrized quantization of local operators in the bag model. [light core commutators, singularities]

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D; (United States)

We argue that the quantization of Chodos, Jaffe, Johnson, Thorn, and Weisskopf (CJJTW) of the bag model in two dimensions is inappropriate for considerations of locality and we present a new quantization in which the parametrization is fixed by positivity. The CJJTW operator algebra is obtained as a subalgebra of an extended system. A boundary regularization procedure is introduced and a local phi (x) operator having cutoff-independent matrix elements is defined. Boundary fluctuation effects are finite. We calculate an example of bag scattering in an external field and show that the crossed-channel bag-pair production and annihilation amplitudes contain only those singularities associated with bag fission. Nontrivial light-cone commutators are calculated. (AIP)
