The region very close to an electron ($r << r_0 = e^2/mc^2 \approx 2.8\times 10^{-13}$ cm) is, according to quantum electrodynamics, a seething maelstrom of virtual electron-positron pairs flashing in and out of existence. To take account…

Phenomenological studies support the applicability of naturalness and naive dimensional analysis to hadronic effective lagrangians for nuclei. However, one-baryon-loop vacuum contributions in renormalizable models give rise to unnatural…
We examine the vacuum polarization contribution in the renormalization scheme of QED. Normally, the quadratic divergence term is discarded under the condition that the counter term of the Lagrangian density should be gauge invariant. Here,…
