Abstract

Using the methods of Lie algebras the matrices Lk (k = 0, 1, 2, 3), appearing in the Bhabha wave-equation based on the 16 and 20-dim representations of the group SO (4,1) are given as linear combinations of the basis elements of the Lie algebra B2. The hermitianizing matrix is also constructed and the masses of the particles determined. Finally the transformation properties of the hermitianizing matrix are studied.
