Abstract

The fundamental importance of the massless particles in physics is seen from the fact that almost all known interactions are dominated by a massless particle (with an extrapolation to soft mesons (m→o) in the case of strong interactions) (Table 1).

Lecture given at the VIII. Internationale Universitätswochen für Kernphysik, Schladming, February 24–March 8, 1969.
