Dynamic symmetries and supersymmetries in nuclear and particle physics. Ch. 8
Description
The role played by the concept of dynamic symmetry and supersymmetry in the development of physics in the last 30 years is discussed. Experimental examples of this type of symmetry in nuclear and particle physics are presented. The importance of the notion of invariant operators, introduced by Casimir in 1931 is emphasized. (author). 29 refs.; 4 figs
