Extract

It has been acknowledged for a long time that current quantum theory is incomplete. The difficulties and unanswered problems which have gradually become apparent during the development of the theory will not be discussed here, and only one aspect of the situation will be mentioned, that there seems to exist a large number of particles with different rest-masses, the numerical values of which demand a theoretical explanation. The experimental material has recently been greatly increased by the discovery of several kinds of mesons with different rest-masses.
