T*-PRODUCT AND FALSE NONCONSERVATION OF ANGULAR MOMENTUM IN THE PION DECAY

Abstract

In the framework of the intermediate vector boson theory, developed in the early 1960s, T*-product induces false nonconservation of angular momentum in the π→μ+ν decay. It points out that if correctly formulated, the pion cannot decay and clarifies how this problem can be resolved in the electroweak theory. In this consideration, some unexpected facts are found.
